It will bring together reputed industry experts, blockchain enthusiasts, startupers, and entrepreneurs on a single platform.

The event will take place for the second time. The first conference was attended by more than 400 people, and speakers included experts from five countries.

Digital Policy in Belarus

Due to the decree “On the Development of Digital Economy”, the state has legalized the cryptocurrency turnover based on the Hi-Tech Park since March 28. Prime Minister of Belarus Andrei Kobyakov states that if this experience succeeds, such a practice will be applied nationwide.

According to the new legislation, Belarus does not refer mining to entrepreneurial activity and does not impose taxes on it up to January 1, 2023. Besides, the country provides affordable electricity, which makes it one of the most favorable for cryptocurrency mining.

The state pays great attention to the development of the IT sector: the Government has approved the digital banking development strategy for 2016–2020. Moreover, members of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus say that information technology in 2018 should become the main driver of the economy development.

Currently, the Government is aimed at creating as favorable conditions as possible for the activity of IT companies within the country. Participants of Blockchain & Bitcoin Conference Belarus will discuss the possibility of implementing such a plan and the existing prerequisites for this.
