Fair value represents the price at which an asset or liability would be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. In the context of digital assets, it reflects the market consensus on an asset’s worth under normal market conditions. This valuation is essential for financial reporting and investment analysis. Determining fair value can be complex for assets with limited liquidity or nascent markets.
Context

Key debates surround the appropriate methodologies for valuation, especially for assets lacking established markets or generating no cash flows. Future developments will likely involve the refinement of accounting standards and valuation models to better account for the specific attributes of digital assets.
