MINSK, 5 September (BelTA) – A proposal to establish a crypto bank in Belarus was presented to Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko during a meeting on developing the digital token sector, BelTA has learned.
First Deputy Chairman of the Board of Belarus’ National Bank Aleksandr Yegorov was the one to put forward the initiative to run an experiment on setting up a crypto bank in the country. The proposal was generally approved by the president, he said. “At the same time, it was emphasized that the president should make all the decisions so that potential investors can see how it will function, first of all. Secondly, guarantees will be essentially provided by the state and signed by the president personally in the form of a decree,” Aleksandr Yegorov said.
The National Bank and the government are supposed to prepare a relevant draft decree within a month. It will be submitted to the head of state for signing.
