Digital Asset Prohibition

Definition

Digital asset prohibition refers to governmental or regulatory actions that forbid the ownership, trading, mining, or use of cryptocurrencies and other digital assets within a specific jurisdiction. Such bans can range from outright restrictions on all related activities to targeted prohibitions on certain types of digital assets or services. These measures are typically implemented due to concerns about financial stability, capital control, money laundering, or investor protection. Digital asset prohibition represents a severe regulatory stance against the sector.
