Robocoin Soon Presenting
Robocoin Soon Presenting to Italian Parliament and Launch Italy’s First Bitcoin ATM
Las Vegas-based Robocoin has announced that CEO Jordan Kelley is
enroute to Rome to present to the Italian Parliament and launch the
first bitcoin ATM in Italy on the 26th of June.
On the matter, Kelley said that “this is an opportunity to help
educate and have meaningful conversations with Italy’s influential
government. Italy is full of cultural tastemakers and has a rich history
in banking and finance. These all support Robocoin’s goal of helping
proliferate Bitcoin.”
Specifically, Kelley is said to be presenting the Robocoin’s AML
(anti-money laundering) and KYC (know-your-customer) features (which
includes biometric scanners), which will be a part of the fourth-annual
“No Cash Day”, an event that’s been promoted by Parliament member Sergio
Boccadutri (and organized by CashlessWay).
Representatives from Hyperion, Unicredit, the Italian Banking
Association, MasterCard, the Bitcoin Foundation and more will be joining
Kelley.
From the announcement:
Headlined by the event “Bitcoin in the real
economy,” this public hearing at the Chamber of Deputies (which, along
with the Senate, form the Italian Parliament) will feature lawmakers,
bankers, public utility representatives and entrepreneurs debating
Bitcoin’s potential in real economy. Supporters are expected to be
advocating laws to integrate Bitcoin in the Italian economy. A variety
of cyprocurrency-centric topics will be examined including business
opportunities, tax implications and controls to avoid criminal
activities.
After the presentation, Jordan Kelley will depart the Parliament and
head over to Luiss EnLabs (a leading Italian incubator) inside Termini
Station to activate the first Robocoin in the country.
The event will be livestreamed.
The news comes just two months after Kelley traveled to the Capital
of the United States to present the Robocoin to influential lawmakers on
Capitol Hill.
