Global #governments

Governments worldwide are increasingly turning their attention to the cryptocurrency industry, with a particular focus on tax transparency and cross-border payments.

In a recent discussion on Farcaster, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin shared his innovative thoughts on the concept of “for-profit cities,” which imagines urban areas run like business ventures, reminiscent of “Walmartopia” or “Teslaville.”

Cryptocurrencies have evolved from a niche interest into a cornerstone of the global financial system. As digital currencies gain momentum, governments worldwide are increasingly recognizing their potential and integrating them into their economies.
