  One potential challenge of implementing t+1 settlement in the digital currency market is the need for significant changes to existing infrastructure and systems. This could involve upgrading or replacing outdated technology, which can be time-consuming and costly. Additionally, there may be resistance from market participants who are accustomed to the current settlement process. It may take time for them to adapt to the new system and ensure smooth implementation. However, once the necessary changes are made, t+1 settlement can offer benefits such as reduced counterparty risk and improved efficiency.
