This article, Overview and Recommendations on Regulatory Policies for Cryptocurrencies in Major Countries and Regions, aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the global cryptocurrency regulatory landscape, offering valuable trading references for investors and decision-makers. The report begins with big data statistics on global cryptocurrency legalization and regulatory policies, outlining the legal status of cryptocurrencies in different countries and categorizing them based on these legal statuses. The focus of the research is on G20 countries, which account for a significant portion of the global population, trade volume, and GDP, making their regulatory policies of crucial reference value for the world.

Key Takeaways

The Legalization of Cryptocurrencies: Currently, over 119 countries and regions globally have legalized cryptocurrencies, with G20 countries, as key representatives, playing a particularly influential role. These countries have increasingly improved their regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrencies, demonstrating a dual goal of strengthening investor protection while promoting technological innovation.

Regional Features of Regulatory Policies: In the United States, due to its large cryptocurrency market and active institutional participation, regulatory policies focus on ensuring market stability and compliance. For example, the approval process for Bitcoin ETFs is a clear indication of the market’s growing maturity, reflecting a shift toward more regulated, mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrency assets.

International Cooperation and Regulatory Innovation: G20 member countries are increasingly prioritizing cross-border regulatory cooperation to address the challenges posed by global cryptocurrency trading. For example, Dubai has established a transparent and efficient cryptocurrency regulatory system through collaboration with global regulatory agencies, while Russia has clarified the legal status of cryptocurrency mining to balance domestic resources with international competition.

Impact of Policies on the Market: Various countries’ regulatory policies significantly influence market sentiment and capital flow. For instance, the U.S. SEC’s approval of the XRP ETF has boosted market confidence, while the UK’s pilot program for digital government bonds has expanded blockchain application in traditional financial sectors. At the same time, innovative policies in Japan and Singapore have further promoted the development of DeFi and cross-chain technologies.

Future Trends and Recommendations: As technology advances and the global economic environment changes, future cryptocurrency regulatory frameworks will increasingly focus on international coordination, user rights protection, and technological innovation. Strengthening cooperation and establishing unified cross-border standards will become key priorities for regulators. Cryptocurrency businesses must closely monitor policy changes and enhance their competitiveness through technological compliance innovation.

As the U.S. election concludes, 2024 is also closing. Reflecting on this year's crypto bull market, Meme has been an unavoidable topic. From BOME at the start of the year, MAGA in the middle, to GOAT at the end, Memecoin has generated new hot topics every quarter, sustaining the industry's momentum. Belgian scholar Francis Paul Heylighen proposed in 1998 that meme culture consists of four stages, including "assimilation," "retention," "expression," and "transmission." On a deeper level, meme culture's popularity can be attributed to its alignment with the uses and gratifications theory proposed by British communication scholar McQuail.
