Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation has inked a memorandum of understanding with the Stellar Development Foundation, with the two sides agreeing to cooperate on a number of digital asset-related initiatives.

According to statements published Monday, such projects will include assisting Ukraine’s central bank on its digital currency efforts and, more broadly, “the development of a strategy for virtual assets in Ukraine.”

The SDF will help Ukraine build infrastructure for a modern virtual asset market and “enhance Ukraine’s status as an innovative digital country in the financial market in Eastern Europe,” according to a press statement.
