"..Data-driven systems now make more and more decisions about our lives, including whether we get a loan - This means that behind every smart contract or automated credit decision, a person’s future is at stake..." ✍🏽 From Prof. Dr @Prof Naseem Naqvi MBE MBE FBBA: Link to full article in comments.

📍For tax and accounting purposes: Are governance tokens "assets" held by DAO? 📍Do DAO treasuries "control" the cryptoassets? 📍Can DAO governance voters sell the tokens without consensus of all holders? 📍Which crypto accounting framework applies to DAOs: IFRS or GAAP? ➡️ Research from The #JBBA author Hamman Schoonwinkel of Stellenbosch University. ✍🏽 Infographics designed by the BBA's Centre for Evidence Based Blockchain.

📍Yesterday, BBA submitted its formal response to the Financial Conduct Authority's Consultation Paper CP26/13: Cryptoasset Perimeter Guidance. While we welcome the FCA’s efforts to provide greater regulatory clarity, we disagree with several aspects of the proposed guidance, and have invited the FCA to revisit six key areas: ➡️ The “identifiable person” doctrine is too elastic ➡️ The qualifying stablecoin definition leaves perimeter gap ➡️ The safeguarding “control” test is broader than the harm justified ➡️ The categorical treatment of crypto lending as “dealing" ➡️ The complete disapplication of the overseas persons exclusion ➡️ The dual MLR/FSMA architecture is duplicative 🌐 We would like to thank our members, advisors, partners, and researchers at CEBB for drafting this comprehensive, evidence-based response. #Blockchain #FCA #Cryptoasset #UKRegulation #DigitalAssets #BBA

🇬🇧 The Bank of England and Financial Conduct Authority are jointly seeking input on the future of #Tokenisation for the UK's financial markets. In consultation with our advisors, members and partners, we will be submitting an evidence based response to the call for input. #Tokenisation #BBA

🎤 "Traditional rails have failed us. Remittances in the Global South range from 8-30% when they can be under 1% using the Blockchain. As we re-write the new constitution of global financial system, we must ensure we get it right this time - Build systems that are inclusive, democratic, efficient and serve everyone", said Prof. Dr @Prof Naseem Naqvi MBE MBE FBBA speaking at the FT Live @Financial Times :press: Digital Assets Summit. #FTLive #Blockchain #DigitalAssets
