5. The Kingโ€™s Speech

The Oscar-winning movie had been nominated for Best Picture in 2010, but is popular to this day. The film tells the story of King George VI, who attempted to overcome his stammering issue to lead his country during the difficult time of World War II.

The Blockchain Promise

Prior to Her Majestyโ€™s death, she received a warm gift from the British Blockchain Association back in 2021. Queen Elizabeth II was thrilled about the innovation that the technology can bring. The article on โ€œGender Change Information, Blockchain, and GDPRโ€ made an impression on Her Majesty.

Later on, the United Kingdom gave the green light to stablecoins in this yearโ€™s Queenโ€™s Speech, which had to be delivered by Prince Charles, as the Queen couldnโ€™t participate due to health issues. As the country is leaning towards crypto, it will be exciting to see how the plan revealed in this yearโ€™s Queenโ€™s Speech is put into motion.
