In the ever-evolving realm of blockchain and digital assets, staying informed is not just an advantage – it’s a necessity. Zumo is delighted to have collaborated with the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC) and more than 70 industry leaders in contributing to the Global Standards Mapping Initiative (GSMI). Now in its fourth iteration, the GSMI is the most comprehensive industry-focused effort to map and analyse the blockchain and digital assets landscape across key evolving areas.
