New Bid to Regulate the Crypto Industry
EghtesadOnline: The National Cryptocurrency Taskforce held its first meeting in mid-January to discuss ways and means to regulate the industry.
The Majlis Economic Commission and the government are collaborating to prepare a comprehensive plan for regulating cryptocurrencies, Mohammad Reza Pourebrahimi, the head of the commission, said.
"The commission started working on the issue in the past. However, the former [Rouhani] administration preferred not to get involved," ISNA quoted him as saying.
Pourebrahimi said the commission had then prepared a draft outlining plans for regulating cryptocurrencies and cryptoassets. "The plan did not move forward largely due to the government's lack of interest."
