Last week, the Partisia Blockchain team journeyed to Georgia, a land rich in cultural heritage as the birthplace of wine and now at the forefront of blockchain innovation. Here is a short recap of our fruitful trip.
Last Thursday marked a milestone as Partisia Blockchain formalized its collaboration with the Georgian Innovation and Technology Agency (GITA) through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This pivotal agreement with GITA under the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development sets the stage for collaborative efforts aimed at driving advancements in Web3 technology, both within Georgia and the wider Caucasus. By leveraging their combined expertise and resources, Partisia Blockchain and GITA will explore innovative solutions and applications of blockchain technology, fostering joint support for innovative projects, educational initiatives and frameworks for implementation. This collaboration signifies a commitment to shaping the digital transformation landscape, contributing to economic growth, innovation and societal development in Georgia and beyond.
Our team had the pleasure of meeting with members of the Georgian Web 3.0 community, where we showcased the transformative potential of Partisia Blockchain and multiparty computation (MPC) technology, our latest MOCCA solution and a range of other advantages of MPC. Additionally, we introduced our Grants Program aimed at fostering innovation in the Caucasus. In Tbilisi, we were treated to an exclusive demo of the Nova Miningverse video game, a tangible showcase of Partisia Blockchain’s capabilities. This was followed by an informal meeting with the team behind the game.
Last Friday began with a meeting with Razhden Kuprashvili, Head of the Georgian Anti-Corruption Bureau and his team at the Administration of the Government of Georgia. We discussed the potential of MPC and blockchain technology in combating corruption. Later, we exchanged ideas with entrepreneur Vako Turnava at the offices of his companies Sweeft and Skillwill. Conversations revolved around the various applications of MPC and privacy-enhancing technologies, emphasizing the importance of education and training.
This trip showcased the possibilities of blockchain technology and strengthened our commitment to driving positive change in Georgia and beyond. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to push the boundaries of innovation and collaboration in the world of Web 3.0.

Introducing Partisia Blockchain’s highly anticipated AirDrop program. We are thrilled to launch the Partisia Blockchain AirDrop program. It marks a significant milestone for ecosystem adoption. With the upcoming governance vote for the MPC token transferability just around the corner, this is a testament for the Partisia Blockchain’s vision. The program features an impressive pool size of 25 million MPC tokens. The program offers an unparalleled opportunity for the early adopters of the Partisia Blockchain.
The first tranche of the 25 million MPC token AirDrop program will kickstart the further expansion of our ecosystem.
As we prepare for the MPC token listing – outlined in the December 2023 update – this AirDrop program is designed to invigorate the ecosystem. For the début AirDrop tranche, we value continuous activity and contributions within the ecosystem. Detailed participation information is available on the official AirDrop program webpage.
In the last 12 months, the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem has rapidly grown. It attracts builders and innovators from various industries, and this is your chance to be rewarded for participating in the official launch. Innovators, such as MetaNames, are offering decentralized domain name services are prime examples. The deployment of these dApps to mainnet is a crucial step in fostering growth and creating a synergistic ecosystem. They empower and bring to life collaborations between dApps and broadening the scope of new use cases. As the AirDrop program takes place, more dApps will deploy on mainnet to chart an exciting AirDrop journey. We encourage participants to deploy their own contracts with the smart contract IDE, DApp playground.
