ADAN: Association for the Development of Digital Assets

A dozen French crypto-actors, including Ledger and ConsenSys, come together to create theADAN, a association which aims to develop the digital assets in France.

Baptized theADAN (Association for the Development of Digital Assets), the association will represent industry to public authorities and civil society.

Important players in the French ecosystem, namely ARK Ecosystem, Blockchain Partner, Coinhouse, ConsenSys France, iExec, Kaiko, Ledger, LGO, Nomadic Labs and Woorton, thus join forces to professionalize the emerging digital asset sector.

TheADAN organize regular meetings in an attempt to bring concrete answers to the problems currently encountered by crypto-startups.

In a press release shared with Cryptonaute, the CEO of ARK Ecosystem, François-Xavier Thoorens, explains that the aim is in particular to push the banking of French blockchain companies, which do not yet have equal access to banking services, due to the lack of suitable legislation.

"They are therefore tempted to settle abroad. I’m happy and proud to be part ofADAN today to defend and push this reform which is absolutely necessary for the French economy of tomorrow. The France can't afford to miss out on the technological revolution of cryptocurrencies and the blockchain, ”He adds.

For its launch,ADAN will soon organize its first event around the theme: " Digital assets: opportunities for France and Europe ".
