Cryptocurrency & Blockchain Technology
Best Blockchain & Cryptocurrency Lawyers in India
Ever since the emergence of blockchain technology (a decentralized, distributed ledger that records the provenance of a digital asset), the term ‘Cryptocurrency’ has started to come forth as a promising future prospect. Cryptocurrency is essentially a digital or virtual currency/asset-based on blockchain technology, that is secured by cryptography, to control the creation of additional coins, and to verify the transfer of coin ownership. With its growing popularity in the Indian market, the governance of cryptocurrency in India due to lack of statutes, regulations and guidelines, has been in a state of flux in the recent past.
The Reserve Bank of India, in April 2018, through a circular prohibited all Commercial and Cooperative Banks, Payment Banks, Small Finance Banks, Payment System Providers and Non-banking Financial companies from dealing in virtual currencies; however, the Supreme Court of India lifted the ban imposed by RBI and reversed the standpoint. This emerging segment of technology, despite receiving clarifications from the Reserve Bank of India and Supreme Court of India, is still not widely welcomed by the developers and investors in India as it is not recognised as a legal tender in India.
