According to Cointelegraph, Piero Cipollone, executive board member of the European Central Bank (ECB), has proposed the introduction of a 'European ledger' to integrate digital assets. The distributed ledger infrastructure would consolidate Europe's digital assets on a single platform, thereby increasing efficiency. Cipollone believes that the European ledger would serve as a foundational layer for integrating digital assets into the European financial system. The ledger would provide a secure and transparent infrastructure for the issuance, trading, and settlement of digital assets. The proposal is still in its early stages, and it is unclear when or if it will be implemented. However, it is a significant step forward in the ECB's exploration of digital assets. If implemented, the European ledger could have a major impact on the development of the digital asset market in Europe.
