Belgium’s digital minister: EU to ‘bring order to crypto’ with own blockchain | The Crypto Mile

On this week’s episode of The Crypto Mile, our host Brian McGleenon interviews Belgium’s digital minister Mathieu Michel, who discusses the EU’s plans to “bring order to crypto” and develop its own official, regulated blockchain. Michel emphasizes the need for trust and regulation in the rapidly evolving crypto ecosystem and asserts that crypto should be viewed not merely as a currency, but as a document of value, a means to exchange value, credentials, property ownership, and a way to protect privacy.
