Abstract

The article discusses the changes in legislation of the Russian Federation related to the regulation of the crypto-currency market. Irreversibility of performed operations (transactions), absence of centralized data storage on servers and, as a result, much lower data vulnerability, ability to sign and manage smart contracts directly between the parties without intermediaries, convenience of round-the-clock service of the system, low cost of transactions and shortened production (business) chain through elimination of intermediaries - all these factors are the grounds for increasing popularity of digital assets. Digital currencies do not act as a supplement to the existing financial infrastructure, they create a new one – transparent, reliable and seamless (independent from intermediaries). This is how the creator of Blockchain and Bitcoin envisioned the future of new digital technologies. As the crypto-currency consumer market expands, so does the number of legalization factors associated with its use. Despite the fact that shadow economy benefits from safety of cryptocurrency transactions in the dark web, the blockchain technology is still aimed at ordinary people and protecting their personal data from leaking to third parties.
