The digital coin is also expected to turn a qualitatively new page in the history of Lithuania’s numismatics and to engage the youth in coin collecting.

The Bank of Lithuania is planning to release 24,000 collector tokens created using the blockchain technology. The digital collector coin is going to be yet another step in implementing the Bank of Lithuania’s strategic direction in the field of innovation and fintech, aimed at helping Lithuanian and international companies gain knowledge and carry out blockchain oriented research, thus adapting and testing blockchain-based services in the financial sector.
