2. Every country has brought bitcoin and other digital currencies into the regulatory system. Although the regulatory progress and attitude are different, the regulation of digital currencies in different countries is mainly carried out from the following five aspects:
first, classify the legal nature of digital currencies and establish their legal status
the identification of the nature of digital currency has always been the core issue of legal supervision
Second, regulate ICO to protect the rights and interests of investors
thirdly, we should adopt the license system to supervise the legal qualification of digital currency start-ups< Fourth, the digital currency trading platform and private users should be included in the anti money laundering laws and regulations to prevent money laundering activities
fifthly, rece or exempt bitcoin transaction tax or formulate regulatory exemption privileges to relax the regulation of digital currency instry.

3. Bitcoin has been regulated by the US government in the United States. The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) recently released a document saying that bitcoin and other virtual currencies are reasonably defined as commodities, just like crude oil or wheat. This means that bitcoin futures and options are subject to CFTC regulations and regulation. It is necessary to apply for a license to carry out bitcoin related business in New York State, otherwise it will be considered illegal. In California, the attitude of bitcoin and other virtual currencies is relatively friendly, but they need to be registered
in the United States, it is legal as long as we do not use virtual currency to carry out illegal activities. Fuyuan coin is registered in the United States, and treasure coin is also registered in the United States. However, according to relevant media reports, the Chinese Americans represented by Liu Longzhu are targeting an enterprise called Regal group. On September 29, the Chinese company in Los Angeles was seized. The company was accused of using a virtual currency called "treasure coin" to cheat investors by pyramid selling, and Jiang Kun's photo became their propaganda material. In mainland China, there are still people peddling "precious coins", but the peddler did not mention Jiang Kun to mainland buyers.

4. Why should the United States recognize bitcoin as a legal financial instrument? Its purpose is to bring bitcoin into the financial regulatory system to protect the interests of ordinary investors. This is the same starting point as our central bank's announcement to ban bitcoin. A typical representative case is a case called Trenton? In 2011-2012, he amassed 700000 bitcoins with a total value of more than US $4.5 million, but he suddenly closed the trust in August 2012, and then claimed that bitcoin was not money and was not regulated by the US government. In order to protect the interests of investors, in August 2013, the court ruled that bitcoin as a financial instrument should be regulated by the US government. This is interpreted as "the United States recognized bitcoin"
5. Reason: with the rapid development of information technology, real money is far from meeting people's demand for capital flow. If there are enough people to recognize the value of a virtual currency, it may become a substitute unit of material exchange, and the existence of virtual currency will inevitably cause another upsurge in the financial sector
in view of the possible risks of virtual currency, many international organizations and central banks have responded publicly to the supervision of virtual currency system. These responses can be roughly divided into four categories: warning and risk warning, supervision and registration permission, legislative norms, and explicit prohibition
(1) warning and risk warning
some central banks and regulators have issued risk warnings against the special currency and virtual currency system. The federal financial regulatory authority of Germany, the Bank of France, the central banks of the Netherlands and Belgium have issued public warnings against the possible money laundering and terrorist financing caused by the use of bitcoin. In the report released at the end of 2013, the European Banking authority (EBA) warned consumers of many risks of virtual currency, such as exchange loss, e-wallet theft, unprotected payment, price fluctuation and so on. Although Spain did not have a similar risk warning, it issued a timely information announcement related to virtual currency
(2) supervision and registration license
generally speaking, international organizations believe that the supervision of virtual currency should find a balance between risk prevention and innovation promotion. Since 2012, Sweden has required transactions related to virtual currency to be registered with financial regulators. Other countries pay attention to qualification supervision, so as to make it indirectly meet the requirements of prudential supervision. In other countries, the regulation mainly focuses on the business model of virtual currency transaction. The financial prudential regulatory authority of France regards the provision of bitcoin circulation and trading services and the act of earning funds in the process as a payment service and requires the authorization of the government. In addition, some countries focus on the intermediary institutions related to virtual currency. The German federal financial regulatory agency and Danish regulators believe that the provision of intermediary services for virtual currency needs to be authorized< (3) legislative norms
at present, some countries have proposed legislation to regulate virtual currency transactions. Canada plans to legislate to allow the government to supervise the transaction of bitcoin, and to include the transaction of more than US $10000 into the scope of suspicious supervision. The United States hopes to adjust the relevant legal structure should be compared with the development of the special currency. In order to make the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) applicable in the context of network, the financial crime enforcement network (FinCEN) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury issued the explanatory guidance on the behavior and subject definition of private generation, holding, distribution, trading, acceptance and transmission of virtual currency in 2013. The European central bank stressed that it should strengthen international cooperation under the existing legal framework, and regulate virtual currency from the European and global level under the existing legal framework. More countries believe that bitcoin is not a currency in circulation, has no legal status, and does not meet the definition of financial instruments, such as Finland, Sweden, Malaysia and Indonesia
(4) it is forbidden
in some countries, bitcoin related transactions are prohibited. In December 2013, the people's Bank of China banned financial institutions from trading in bitcoin, which was subsequently extended to payment service providers. The central banks of Thailand and Indonesia share the same attitude. The circulation of anonymous internet currency (including bitcoin) is prohibited by the Russian judicial inspection department as a substitute for currency. The Central Bank of Russia has earlier included the provision of bitcoin services in the scope of suspicious transaction monitoring. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has banned the issue of unregistered shares in exchange for bitcoin, and unregistered online securities trading activities in virtual currency.

6. The United States has no anti money laundering agency specifically for virtual currency. Because virtual currency is very small in the face of the huge amount of money in the United States, and it has not been officially circulated in the world, it is not worth spending a lot of taxpayers' money to establish a special anti money laundering agency.
7. The CFC classifies bitcoin and other virtual currencies as & quot; Commodities & quot; At the same time, each state has successively introced the digital currency regulatory laws and regulations to determine the regulatory framework of the digital currency instry.
8. Surely many people know that both MTL and MSB in the United States are digital licenses. Are they the same? Just apply for one of them. When people are not, there is still a big difference between the two. MSB in the United States is registered with the financial regulatory authority and can engage in money services, which is widely similar to digital currency business. MTL in the United States is to achieve state compliance, and can be fully engaged in legal currency trading and digital currency business. If it does not have financial qualification in the United States for many years, it must first apply for MSB for filing, and then apply for state MTL license
when fire coin announced that it had obtained the MSB (money services business) license in the United States in 18, it aroused the attention and discussion of many exchanges, and at the same time, it was the prelude to the compliance of each exchange. With the improvement of blockchain laws in various countries, especially with the graal maturity of STO rules under the dynamic supervision of SEC in the United States, many exchanges also began to apply for MSB and MTL (money transmitter licensing) licenses
in the United States, companies must comply with federal regulations when they conct business, and they must also comply with state regulations when they register as remittance activities. At present, 53 states and regions have licensing requirements, and the cost of licensing fees mainly includes application fees, licensing fees, investigation fees and other fees. The United States is one of the three largest cryptocurrency trading markets in the world. HTC is actively exploring the U.S. market together with hbus, the exclusive strategic partner of the United States. At present, hbus has obtained MSB license and MTL license of 12 states, which can carry out compliance business in relevant regions
