On Thursday 24th of February, 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. War had broken out in Eastern Europe. Although we’re not here to comment on the political situation in Ukraine and beyond, we can observe one fact: Ukraine’s government turned to crypto in trying times.

The crypto community responded.

In the first 5 days of its inception, Unchain Fund, a crypto charity fund for Ukraine founded by prominent figures in blockchain, raised more than $1.8m. They’ve since gone on to raise millions more.

Now, this is perhaps the highlight of crypto’s strength in Eastern Europe throughout 2022, but in nations throughout Eastern Europe that are not under attack from a foreign regime, the crypto community continues to thrive.

In late 2021, Chanalyis shared a report which indicated that Eastern Europe is a hotbed for scams in the cryptoverse. Since then, the industry has continued to mature.

COINZIX’s vision is that of an easy, safe, and reliable, suit of products that are primed to dominate the crypto landscape in Eastern Europe.

Although, they won’t be able to usher in the mass adoption of crypto alone. COINZIX, and other Eastern European crypto-evangelists will have to work together, alongside governments, regulators, and the global community to ensure that Eastern Europe plays a pivotal role in the future of digital finance (and beyond).

Some notable movements in Eastern Europe surrounding blockchain and cryptocurrency tech include;

Financial liberation through the blockchain is not something that will occur overnight. On the contrary, this is an uphill battle that is being fought around the world, including in Eastern Europe, and players like COINZIX will not stop until it has been won.
