Amsterdam is where early attempts to integrate cryptography with electronic money were made by David Chaum (Chaum.com) (inventor of many cryptographic protocols. His 1981 paper, "Untraceable Electronic Mail, Return Addresses, and Digital Pseudonyms", laid the groundwork for the field of anonymous communications research. For example the predecessor of TOR: Mix networks), through his companies DigiCash (anonymous transactions) and ecash (anonymous electronic cash system), which used cryptography to anonymise electronic money transactions.

Beurs van Berlage, old Amsterdam Stock Exchange

"More than hundred years ago Berlage wrote a letter to his brother while building the stock exchange. Berlage was a socialist and wrote: "I realise that this is the most capitalistic building of Amsterdam, but when the economy collapses this exchange will be a people's palace. A place where meetings, sharing knowledge and working together are central".
