“I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free… .. It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to than I have ever known”
Okay. It is not about any sacrifice as Dicken intended. It is about how the exchanges feel good about going to Malta.
Whilst Binance and OKEX are going for Malta, do you hear any noise about exchanges going to Gibraltar? The main reason is the people of the country. Maltese are genuine and welcoming, particularly about people who brought in economy and new opportunities. These Islanders are truly welcoming crypto-businese in their heart. Gibraltarians are still adopting the British gentlemen style of doing business, cold and arrogant.
It may be my own subjective view. But look at the local banks in these 2 countries. I have heard 1 or 2 Malta local banks are friendly to crypto, while local banks in Gibraltar are probably STILL THINKING the feasibility to crypto.
See the difference?
