- —Riksbank says it has not taken a position on issuing a digital krona
- —95% of Sweden's financial sector is privately run, raising payment-system security concerns
- —Infrastructure for a digital krona would take about five years after parliamentary approval
- —Dollar stablecoins account for 99.5% of the $301.4 billion market
