Money or Assets? How World Governments Define Cryptocurrencies / Dinero o activos? Cómo los gobiernos del mundo definen criptomonedas

in bitcoin •  6 years ago 

Few national governments seem to be in any kind of agreement on this question, and for now, at least, their divisions have given such currencies as Bitcoin and Ethereum a floating, indeterminate status on the global stage.

As a result, cryptocurrencies lack a single, definite existence, with some nations treating them as money (e.g., Japan, Germany) and others treating them as an unregulated, speculative asset (e.g., Mexico, Denmark), making them the financial equivalent. However, which is why they deserve to be classified by future legislation according their own, unique qualities.

"It's not just about foreseeing the future, but about making it possible." (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)

En español:
Pocos gobiernos nacionales parecen estar de acuerdo en esta cuestión, y por ahora, al menos, sus divisiones han otorgado a monedas como Bitcoin y Ethereum un estatus flotante e indeterminado en el escenario global.

Como resultado, las criptomonedas carecen de una existencia única y definida; algunas naciones las tratan como dinero (por ejemplo, Japón, Alemania) y otras las tratan como un activo especulativo no regulado (por ejemplo, México, Dinamarca), lo que las convierte en el equivalente financiero. Sin embargo, es por eso que merecen ser clasificados por legislación futura de acuerdo a sus propias cualidades únicas.

"No se trata sólo de prever el futuro, sino de hacerlo posible". (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)
