1Austria Planning New Regulations for
Cryptocurrency, ICOs
- Austrian government stated that is trying to stop
the use of cryptocurrency
2Austrian government stated that is trying to
stop the use of cryptocurrency as means for
money laundering.
The reforms and regulations are said to be based
on the older model that was used for traditional
assets. Some salient features include. 1. Every
trader/party must be identified by the
cryptocurrency players. This must be done either
by the cryptocurrency company or coin
exchanges. 2. Trades worth more than 12,300 or
greater must be disclosed to the government. The
financial intelligence unit would be responsible
for keeping records of all such
transactions. 3. ICOs would not escape the
regulations like they have managed in case of
many other countries. They would fall under the
same rules of market manipulation and must
submit a "digital prospectus" to the government.
3cryptocurrency is a valid technology
- For once, it makes another country that has been
willing to recognize cryptocurrency as a valid
technology instead of a sham. The announcement
also came around the same time when the
government was probing a suspected bitcoin scam
worth 115 million by an Austrian company
calledOptioment.
However, Loeger's outlook has so far been
positive. In fact, he even advised the European
Union to introduce a broad spectrum of
cryptocurrency regulations. EU, which has so far
been disdainful of the technology, has planned a
meet week. The meet would comprise of top
bankers, market expert, and some key
cryptocurrency experts. The move by Austrian
government might be the incentive that the group
of nations needed for finally recognizing
cryptocurrency.
