The Regulation of Cryptocurrencies

London , United Kingdom

О проекте The Regulation of Cryptocurrencies

This Autumn, the Crypto Currency Task Force set up by the Chancellor in April is due to deliver its Report.

The Task Force’s deliberations will result in proposals as to how the UK should regulate this dynamic but highly controversial new medium of exchange.

Meanwhile the Treasury Select Committee has probed into cryptocurrencies and, worldwide, they have become a major focus of speculation and rapidly rising and falling fortunes from China to Venezuela.

But regulators are also anxious to harness the new technologies unleashed by digital currencies. Initial coin offering(ICOs) promise to be an efficient and effective method of raising new capital if properly controlled.

This conference will be a forum for all aspects of cryptocurrency regulation. The following panel sessions will give all stakeholders the opportunity to state and debate their points of view
