Estonia considering ‘estcoin’ ICO for e-residents
The Estonian government is considering an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) for a cryptoasset called estcoin. The resulting sale would enable “anyone to invest in a country for the first time,” explains Kaspar Korjus, the Managing Director at e-Residency. Korjus explained that the funds could be managed through a Public Private Partnership (PPP. This would enable Estonia to invest in new technologies and innovations for the public sector, from smart contracts to Artificial Intelligence, as well as make it technically scalable to benefit more people around the world. Estonia would then serve a model for how societies of the future can be served in the digital era.
