Odaily Planet Daily reported that six digital economy and trade organizations in the UK recently sent a letter to Varun Chandra, the Prime Minister's special advisor, calling on the government to appoint a special envoy for blockchain and cryptocurrency affairs and develop a dedicated action plan to promote investment, growth, and employment in the industry.
