According to reports, this initiative also aims to attract companies focusing on blockchain technology to the area. To encourage their presence, the government plans to offer rent subsidies of up to 10,000 yuan (approximately $1,438) to these startups.
National blockchain platform underway:
As part of the project, the government will provide cash rewards to web3 businesses based in Fuzhou. These rewards will be up to 6% of their operating income, given that their active income exceeds a certain range of 5 to 25 million yuan for the first time.
Additionally, the government will offer support for the creation of blockchain applications and experimental initiatives in the area. A national-level blockchain network will be established to connect various blockchain networks across the country, facilitated through the national blockchain center.
