Title: [2015-09-24] 20 GBP Note Goes Polymer, Competitors Embrace Blockchain Technology Post by: upsidedown75 on September 24, 2015, 05:02:31 PM 20 GBP Note Goes Polymer, Competitors Embrace Blockchain Technology
The world of finance and banking has not seen much innovation over the past 50-60 years. Money has stayed the same over the decades albeit there might be a different King or Queen on banknotes and coins. The biggest financial innovation in the banking sector today — in the UK at last — is the fact that 20 GBP notes will no longer be printed on paper, but will make the switch to polymer. http://bitcoinist.net/gbp-polymer-competitors-embrace-blockchain-technology/ Title: Re: [2015-09-24] 20 GBP Note Goes Polymer, Competitors Embrace Blockchain Technology Post by: jbrnt on September 24, 2015, 05:52:51 PM The decision to produce plastic 5 and 10 pound notes was made nearly 2 years ago in 2013.
