one of the most respected in Europe – along with Blockseed, [Binance](https://bit.ly/TopExchange),
Fetch.ai, Ripple, and Block.one.

Maria Minaricova, Blockchain For Europe’s Board chairperson, congratulated Electroneum.

As a trade association, Blockchain for Europe ensures that blockchain companies 
can speak with a unified voice to effectively and positively influence policymaking
at the EU level. “We proactively contribute to the regulatory debate by supporting
European decision-makers in their goal to make Blockchain technology a success,”
the association states on their website.

> “It’s a great honor to join such an important group of blockchain firms in their
> mission to ensure that new rules and regulations do not stifle innovation in the
> space,” said Electroneum CEO Richard Ells.

> “We look forward to playing our part in helping European authorities and lawmakers
> better understand the important technological advances blockchain enables,” he
> stated.

The group is currently contributing to ongoing discussions about a digital Euro 
and the proposed EU framework for markets in crypto-assets as well as on other relevant
regulatory issues.

As the association grows, it intends to expand into areas such as self-sovereign
identity, digital taxation, IoT, and governance.
