A digital asset ban constitutes a prohibition imposed by a government or regulatory body on the use, trading, or ownership of cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. Such restrictions often cite concerns regarding financial stability, consumer protection, money laundering, or capital flight. The scope of a ban can range from outright prohibition to severe limitations on specific activities. These measures significantly impact market access and innovation within a jurisdiction.

The situation involves balancing perceived risks with the potential economic advantages of digital assets. A critical future development is the re-evaluation of existing bans as governments seek to attract blockchain innovation.
