The Digital pound (also known as digital sterling or britcoin)[1] is a proposed central bank digital currency from the Bank of England. It is intended to supplement, not replace, cash in the United Kingdom.[1] The value of the digital pound would be the same as cash pound sterling so that £10 of digital pounds would have the same value as a banknote of £10.[1]

It differs from a cryptocurrency or cryptoasset as it is backed by the Bank of England and the Government of the United Kingdom.[1]

A public consultation lasting four months on the digital pound was announced on 6 February 2023.[2] A final decision on the implementation of a digital pound would be expected around 2025, with consumer usage expected in the late 2020s.[2]
