The increasing adoption of AI and Web 3.0 by industry leaders is paving the way for more transparent, secure, and inclusive payments. However, this digital shift brings challenges related to cybersecurity and sovereignty. The emergence of quantum computing poses a potential threat to the current cryptography of crypto-assets, raising concerns about their resilience against these technological advancements.
At the same time, payment sovereignty has become a strategic priority. The European Union is pushing to make instant payments the new standard while accelerating work on the Digital Euro to strengthen the continent’s independence in this sector.
The growing digitalisation of payments is no longer just about transactions: it is reshaping the balance between innovation, regulation, and security, a key topic at the heart of discussions at TRUSTECH.
