Crypto.com, a Singapore-based cryptocurrency exchange, said Friday it has awarded a four-year grant to the Digital Currency Initiative (DCI) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab.
An unspecified amount of grant is intended to support DCI’s research into Bitcoin security and the open-source development of the network’s underlying protocols. Eric Anziani, COO of Crypto.com, said:
“MIT’s Digital Currency Initiative plays a critical role in building a sustainable blockchain ecosystem, particularly by strengthening Bitcoin’s underlying protocol.”
Crypto.com also supports the Secure Blockchain Initiative at Carnegie Mellon University and improves on-chain security.
We also announced that Crypto.com will be the official sponsor of the FIFA World Cup to be held in Qatar this year.
