This is a great sign that proves the legitimacy and potential of Blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.  Sweden is a very forward thinking and progressive country (at least that is my perception of it) and are moving to a state initiated coin.  For a country to be making this step shows that they can see the benefits and opportunities that adapting to crypto can offer, while maintaining a national identity and a state controlled (or at least influenced) currency.

Another great sign that crypto is gaining in legitimacy.
