Cryptocurrency Slang Being Replaced
Dmitry Medvedev – Prime Minister of Russia has clarified crypto-regulating movements that took place. Instead of using words like cryptocurrency and tokens, lawmakers are working on legal terms which are: digital money and digital rights as expressions.
The Russian regulators still have many unresolved issues and disagreements within institutions.That is why postpones of many sorts took place. However, the lower house of Russia’s parliament – State Duma, filed two draw laws. First one defines crypto-mining and ICO’s, and the second bill adjusts the Russian civil code to transactions.
The term “Cryptocurrency – crypto” has reached fame even further than the crypto-verse, but officials still attempt to avoid it. Accordingly, Russians authorities tend in the same path. As the Prime Minister stated:
“We need to consolidate the basic provisions and translate them into the language of the law. Therefore, instead of common slang expressions such as “cryptocurrencies” and “tokens”, lawmakers are developing the more strict legal concepts of “digital money” and “digital rights.”
