“Web 3. technologies can modify public administration which help its institutions and procedures step forward when it comes to efficiency and speed while decreasing costs, overhead, and excessive bureaucratic activities.”

It was not Elrond’s first venture in Romania. Three several weeks prior, the nation’s Bank of Romania approved Elrond’s proposal to buy Romanian fintech Capital Financial Services, also referred to as Twispay.
