“Malta is an innovative country that has opened its doors to new technology like blockchain,” Bitfury CEO Valery Vavilov says. “Bitfury and Ledger will develop a wide range of solutions that improve the systems and services that people use every day.”

Ledger Director Anthony Mamo says the tie-up is “a big win for Malta” as it seeks to become “the blockchain island” of Europe. “This is a very important achievement for Ledger Projects, but this is also a vote of confidence in the island and proof that the government’s objective for Malta to become ‘the global trailblazer in the regulation of blockchain-based businesses’ is already being achieved, as is the goal to attract world-class FinTech companies,” Mamo adds.
