In Asia, the most advanced country in terms of blockchain and cryptocurrencies is Japan. In Europe, Malta claims the place of such a country. No wonder the exchange Binance moved to Malta. I think that the economy of Malta will grow several times thanks to cryptocurrencies.
Binance moved to Malta because it plans to add Fiat pairs to the auction. In Japan, it was impossible. I think Malta claims to be an offshore zone for cryptocurrency exchanges. I hope it will work out. Bittrex also added a dollar to the auction but the output is only possible for corporate clients. Later promise to make this function for all. Probably also changed the registration address.
