Jinse has reported that the General Principles of the Civil Law of the People’s Republic of China, which is expected to come into effect on October 1st, will see Chinese cryptocurrency regulations implemented for the first time. The Jinse report suggests that cryptocurrencies will be treated as “virtual property” under Chinese law. Chinese academic, Professor Deng Jianpeng, stated that “bitcoin, [crypto]currency, etc. can be classified as virtual assets.”
The incorporation of virtual currencies into China’s “General Principles of the Civil Law” legislation suggests that China’s recent crackdown on virtual currency exchanges will not be expanded into a nationwide prohibition on the use and possession of cryptocurrencies. Jinse reinforces this inference, stating that “regulators have never mentioned the issue of prohibiting bitcoin from beginning to end, that is to say, the government level does not think that there is a problem with the bitcoin itself”- according to a Google translation.
Jinse asserts that the crackdown on exchanges was motivated by “small platform[s]… not seriously implement[ing] anti-money laundering and KYC policy” requirements. The publication also cites the decision to allow China’s major cryptocurrency exchanges to reopen following PBOC investigations, implying that the recent crackdown on cryptocurrency exchanges is temporary, and should not be interpreted as a general prohibition on cryptocurrency.
