Abstract:
The crypto-asset market is considered a volatile market, subject to security, legality and tax risks, and
customers must be aware of these risks before investing in such a market. At the same time, the market of cryptoassets
is not regulated, therefore it does not provide protection to participants.
The great volatility of the market translates into sudden changes in the prices of these assets, under the
influence of external factors (such as the expression of opinions of influential persons, the involvement of market
companies in legal or fiscal issues, etc.)
The issue of regulating the legal status of crypto-assets is being raised more and more often, precisely to
reduce the associated risks, and there are approaches for and against this Regulation; a question arises
regarding how much the market needs to be regulated, so that regulation is not excessive.
The study aims to analyse the current legal status of the crypto-assets market and its prospects,
internationally.
