К вопросу о понимании цифровых финансовых активов

Abstract

Purpose. In the context of the development of digital technologies, the issue of the existence and legal regulation of digital of financial assets is being updated. In modern legal practice, there is no uniformity in the terminology of these relations, so it is especially important to consider the possibility of using different terms from digital currency to digital rights. The article analyzes various approaches to defining the concept of cryptocurrency offered by specialists working not only in the field of law, but also in economics, since it is important to consider the possibility of reflecting digital assets in accounting. In the course of the research, both General scientific and private scientific methods were used: scientific abstraction, system, logical, analysis and synthesis, comparative legal and formal legal. Conclusions are made that: 1) as a result of numerous discussions about the legal regulation of digital of financial assets, the state has decided on the terminology in these relations; 2) according to the author, the most successful term is the concept of “digital financial assets”, since the term “asset” is used in russian legislation, in particular investment and tax; 3) russian legal practice has used the experience of foreign countries when making changes to existing legislation, in particular in civil, expanding the list of objects of civil legal relations. Scientific and practical significance. This research allows us to critically understand the existing problems of cryptocurrency regulation, as well as contributes to the development of theoretical directions on this topic and the creation of educational materials dedicated to the digital economy.
