Description
The Blockchain and Virtual Currencies Working Group (WG) is an initiative based in Europe focused on addressing the regulatory and legal aspects of blockchain technologies and virtual currencies. It serves as a platform for discussions involving regulatory bodies, industry experts, and academia to foster a regulatory framework that encourages innovation, competition, and investment within the blockchain sector. The WG operates various sub-groups targeting specific domains such as policy and regulation, technology and security, and market developments. Although its primary emphasis is on the European regulatory framework, its activities bear global significance due to the universal nature of blockchain and digital currencies. The group values collaborative efforts to impact policy-making, although it does not explicitly highlight any projects or partnerships it's directly involved in. Additionally, the WG is affiliated with the European Commission Payment Systems Market Expert Group (PSMEG), positioning it as a key industry representative within the European blockchain and virtual currencies landscape.
