Virtual asset regimes refer to the legal and regulatory frameworks established by governmental bodies to govern the creation, trading, and utilization of virtual assets, including cryptocurrencies. These regimes define how virtual assets are classified, the requirements for service providers, and the measures for investor protection and financial crime prevention. They represent a jurisdiction’s approach to integrating digital assets into its economic system.
Context
The development and implementation of virtual asset regimes are central to discussions regarding the future of digital assets and their integration into global finance. Jurisdictions worldwide are formulating or refining these regulations, leading to a complex and often fragmented global regulatory environment. Key debates involve the scope of these regimes, their impact on innovation, and the challenges of cross-border enforcement and regulatory arbitrage.
