Mukesh Ambani, CEO and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, is reportedly planning to enter the crypto space in India with JioCoin.
JioCoin is a rewards-based token built on Ethereum's layer 2 blockchain and aimed at incentivizing users by interacting with Jio's platforms.
Reliance's partnership with Polygon Labs for JioCoin indicates a significant step forward for web3 adoption in India.
However, despite high taxation and regulatory hurdles, JioCoin could boost crypto adoption in India, leveraging Jio's massive user base and Polygon's layer 2 solutions.
