Recently, Russia has been articulating the legal concept of blockchain economy in general and cryptocurrency in particular. The Federal Law No. 259-FZ On Digital Financial Assets, Digital Currency and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation dated 31.07.2020 and coming into effect January 1, 2021 is one of the important instruments for the purpose. Financially and legally, many countries define cryptocurrency differently, therefore, creation of a regulated approach to digital economy calls for expert opinion and international experience.
To solve the above problems, the Russian-wide public organization Investment Russia established the Commission on Blockchain Technologies and Crypto Economy ( https://investros.ru/innovation_eng ) .
The Commission includes representatives of international cryptocurrency exchanges (Binance, EXMO, CoinBene, OKEX, Bingbon), the international blockchain consultancy company Colibri Group, the international blockchain rating agency and disclosure platform Xangle (Cross Angle), international blockchain projects (ARPA, Bella Protocol), IT projects (Coindar, Quube, SalAd lab), state organizations, and also legal industry professionals (Digital Rights Center and Roskomsvoboda). Nikolai Gadzhiev, VEROS FP fundraising platform and WIDCI charity initiative founder, is the Commission Chairman. Gleb Kostarev of the global leading exchange platform Binance is the Co-chairman.
During the cooperation with state organizations, the international professional experience of the Commission members will help promote the most effective implementation of the blockchain technology in Russia.
Commission aims:
Cooperation
Active cooperation with national regulatory and industry-specific organizations on establishment of a uniform approach to the creation and perfection of the digital economy.
Proposal development
Development of proposals and creation of initiatives aimed at establishment and perfection of the crypto economy and blockchain technology regulatory framework for national regulatory organizations.
Assessment
Attraction of representatives of the leading digital projects from the blockchain technology realm to work in the Committee and interact with cryptocurrency assets, establishment of expert assessment and improvement of the regulatory framework in Russia.
Communication
Establishment of communication and interaction within the community that forms the blockchain technology and crypto economy sector.
Status assessment
Assessment of the current regulatory framework and efficiency of the national measures aimed at regulation of the use of blockchain technologies and development of crypto economy in Russia.
Experience application
Studying of the international practices of regulating the use of blockchain technologies, development of crypto economy, and the legal standing of cryptocurrency assets.
The Commission’s formation, establishment, and working model are a crucial step towards creation of balanced regulations and a sustainable Digital Economy.
Commission members have been actively developing a bill for further consideration by the State Duma of the Russian Federation. The bill aims to amend the Federal Law No. 259-FZ On Digital Financial Assets, Digital Currency and on Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation so as to establish a more loyal legal environment for natural persons and businesses in Russia.
