PANews reported on January 7th that, according to CoinDesk, Lloyds Banking Group, a British lending institution, announced the completion of the UK's first transaction using tokenized deposits to purchase UK government bonds. Lloyds Banking Group, the UK's third-largest bank by market capitalization, stated that it completed the purchase using the crypto trading platform Archax and the privacy-focused Canton network. This purchase demonstrates that tokenization technology can transform traditional banking, converting real-world assets into digital form, enabling instant buying, selling, or transferring.

In this transaction, Lloyds Bank plc, a subsidiary of Lloyds Bank, issued tokenized deposits on the Canton network. Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets then used these deposits to purchase tokenized Treasury bonds from Archax. Finally, Archax transferred the underlying funds back to its regular Lloyds Bank account.

Benfica, Portugal’s most successful club, appointed the 62-year-old as their new manager on Thursday, just three weeks after he was fired by Turkish giants Fenerbahce after just over a year in charge. It marks an emotional return for Mourinho, who began his coaching career with the Lisbon giants in 2000, managing 11 matches before resigning. By the time he left Portugal for England just under four years later, his star was in the ascendency. As he introduced himself to the English media for the first time, Mourinho famously described himself as the “Special One”. It was a revealing remark, typical of a man whose confidence bordered on arrogance at times. Crucially, it was also borne out by results.
