The Digital Sovereignty Alliance (DSA) participated in Nacha’s Payments Innovation Alliance meeting in Chicago on October 14–16, 2026. DSA senior policy adviser Molly Woodman led discussions about the newly launched Next-Gen Currency Project Team, co-led by Nacha and DSA. The team is exploring how digital assets, including stablecoins and tokenized deposits, could be used to move money; the source does not report a completed payment tool.
Participants also discussed agentic payments, the reliability of multifactor authentication and emerging “Know Your Agent” frameworks. Woodman said financial institutions were looking for ways to maintain continuity where regulation had not caught up.
