A small japanese village named, Nishiawakura is making their economy much more beneficial with the help of cryptocurrencies by launching a Initial Coin Offering. I think it is a best way to help some small villages to grow up with really good profits and also it might bring the cryptocurrencies some more close to legalisation.
The village is home of approximately 1500 villagers and and they unveiled their plans to launch a regional initial coin offering.

this sounds good but isn't it too risky to tell the world that they are in crypto? they will be identified, being a villager is narrower than that of being a country, but oh well, at least they can influence other villager or country all the more in pursuing bitcoin to be well known and well accepted by many. good job.
