Albania’s Crypto Push
In 2017, Edi Rama, the prime Minister of Albania, met Vitalik Buterin (the co-founder of Ethereum) to discuss the possibilities of blockchain technology for Albania. Mr. Rama also traveled to Malta to attend the Blockchain Summit. He spoke about the need to attract blockchain companies to Albania.
The Albanian government has also taken steps to create an environment that welcomes cryptocurrency and blockchain businesses. Albania’s 2018 legislative passed a law that recognized cryptocurrency as a legal currency. This action sent a clear signal to the blockchain industry that Albania is open for business.
