[Vladdirescu87]

Recently, the Ministry of Economic Development in Italy, headed by Luigi di Maio, selected 30 high-level experts to form a blockchain technology development committee.

Apart from managing financial payments, financial transactions or insurance uses, the development of the Italian national strategy in DLT and AI is in the hands of these selected teams of experts. These experts will be responsible for developing and explaining the national strategy on artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain, and analyzing possible application cases especially in public and private services.

I think pertaining to te issues of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, Europe as a whole is providing positive sentiments with regards to regulations and monitoring. I've realized blockchain is gradually becoming a continental revolution since some countries in Asia and Middle East have started various projects in blockchain and their regulators are also getting serious with this new tech.

Italy has not produced any good crypto exchanges or any known ico projects. Germany has LISK and the soviet bloc has many of both, especially estonia. Interesting to see what italy can produce
