Aiming to bring blockchain to Curaçao

Recently, there was an announcement by the Curaçao International Financial Services Association (CIFA) in consultation with the government ministries of Economic Development and of Finance, regarding a Curaçao Blockchain and cryptocurrency Taskforce that was established.

The taskforce is represented by entities that are active in Curaçao’s international financial sector such as cryptocurrency specialists, lawyers, auditors, and representatives of the Dutch Caribbean Securities Exchange (DCSX). Both the Curaçao government and CIFA agree that the current developments in the crypto space can significantly create new economic opportunities for the country.

One of the first steps towards achieving this goal is to create relevant legislation and clarity when it comes to regulations. Curaçao can become an attractive jurisdiction for blockchain startups, payment processors, service providers, and exchanges.
