Summary
- Smart‑jurisdiction strategy: speakers argue Ukraine can convert wartime agility into a durable advantage by codifying fast, transparent regulatory lanes for identity, tokenization, and exchanges while preserving investor protections and rule‑of‑law credibility.
- EU alignment without lock‑in: sandboxes and guidance should map to MiCA/EUDI and procurement norms, but allow phased risk classes, reversible pilots, and public reporting to attract cross‑border capital.
- Compliance‑by‑design rails: standardized KYC/AML with VCs, audit trails for public funds, and provable custody/market integrity for CEX/DEX interfaces reduce systemic risk and ease approvals.
- Public procurement pathway: a repeatable POC→pilot→production route with clear data ownership, security baselines, and exit criteria lowers political risk and accelerates adoption.
- Multistakeholder governance: industry, academia, and civil society participation in rulemaking boosts legitimacy and improves technical fit for high‑stakes services.
