Slovenia became an independent state in 1991 after the division of the former Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Since then, Slovenia has experienced a gradual development of the economy. In 2007, Slovenia joined the European Union and adopted the Euro at the same time.

In the late 2000s, the Slovenian economy suffered from the global economic crisis, resulting in a severe setback of the state. However, foreign direct investment has been increasing, helping the economy to gain stability in recent years.

More recently, the Slovenian government has expressed interest in making Slovenia a leading innovator among EU member states in blockchain technology. To achieve this, the government has pledged to continue public education about the potential of the technology, attract more investments in the field, and offer preferential tax treatment for cryptocurrency transactions.
