Today’s panel explores a timely and important question: _Is synchronization a viable alternative path to achieving the unified ledger vision?_ As central banks, commercial institutions, and infrastructure providers work towards a unified ledger infrastructure vision that brings together tokenized money and assets on a shared infrastructure, an emerging view is that it is not necessary to have it on a shared ledger to unlock the benefits. Instead, synchronization, or coordinating actions across independent ledgers in a secure, atomic, and legally sound manner, offers a modular, scalable approach. Projects like BIS Meridian and the UK’s RLN have shown that interoperability and orchestration may bring us closer to the unified ledger's promise. Let’s explore whether this could be the more practical and powerful path forward.
