Cryptocurrencies in National Laws: A Global Survey

Did you ever wonder whether cryptocurrencies are allowed in Egypt? Or which rights token holders have in case of an insolvency under US law? Or what is the tax treatment of Bitcoin in France? This is the first book to address these questions and others in a comprehensive manner. Twenty-six reporters describe the rules of their national laws as applying to the new phenomena, from regulatory to private law, including conflict of laws. The findings are then summarised by two experts. The wide array of information provided in this book will help the reader navigate the global labyrinth of blockchain laws.
