The Financial Regulator of South Africa has suggested that the cryptocurrencies which do not have the legal tender status in a roadmap presented on April 14, 2020, describes the first comprehensive crypto law of the nation.
The Intergovernmental Fintech Working Group (IFWG) of South Africa released a policy paper stating that the crypto asset sector of South Africa which currently is burgeoning has overdue for strict oversight, a license structure, closer cash flow monitoring etc.
The IFWG in its policy paper has mentioned, “Crypto assets and the various activities associated with this innovation can no longer remain outside of the regulatory perimeter.” The policy paper would not only implement the strict crypto oversight but also would codify the new technologies for the Financial Action Task Force.
A report suggests that in the future the crypto might new restrictions regarding how and when cryptos could be used. Like the policy paper, denies using crypto as a settlement tool within the financial infrastructure of South Africa but urges to use it for the domestic payment purposes with regulations.
