Banks are making it easier to deposit and withdraw fiat currencies.

As a result of the state's innovative cryptocurrency approach, about 80 cryptocurrency companies have shown interest in opening or expanding businesses in the city. The government's cryptocurrency incentives are gaining surprising allies such as Chinese banks and funds.
