India has taken a proactive step in the global regulation of cryptocurrencies by releasing its presidency note on crypto. This official document presents India’s recommendations to be considered in the formulation of worldwide crypto rules.

The significance of this note lies in its role as an official representation of India’s stance on cryptocurrency regulations before the upcoming release of the synthesis paper jointly produced by the IMF and FSB. This synthesis paper, expected to be published at the end of August, will play a crucial role in shaping global crypto rules.

India’s presidency note proposes action points to be included in the synthesis paper, focusing on the effective implementation of the FSB’s recommendations and those of other standard-setting bodies. The note also emphasizes the need to consider macro-financial implications and risks specific to Emerging Markets and Developing Economies.

India advocates for outreach to all jurisdictions

Furthermore, India advocates for outreach to all jurisdictions to raise awareness of the risks associated with cryptocurrencies, particularly in regions with higher adoption rates. To facilitate coordination and cooperation among global stakeholders, the IMF and FSB are suggested to take responsibility for the workaround global crypto rules.

The news of the existence of India’s presidency note surfaced ahead of the FMCBG meeting last month through a senior official of the Indian Finance Ministry, Ajay Seth. While specific details of the note were not disclosed, it was revealed that multiple G20 members sought changes to ensure it reflected the collective considerations of all member nations.

As the synthesis paper approaches its release, the global crypto community awaits the incorporation of India’s recommendations and anticipates the impact of the G20’s collective efforts in shaping the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies worldwide.

India’s position on cryptocurrency has been a topic of continuous deliberation and examination. The country has taken a measured approach towards cryptocurrencies, with government officials and regulatory authorities expressing reservations about potential risks and their implications for the financial system.
