Monthly Commissions
As per the regulations, SUNACRIP will be in a position to stipulate tariffs, set limits on the total amounts to be sent, establish the value of the cryptocurrency in sovereign bolivars (the traditional fiat currency), and to ask for data from the issuers and receivers engaged in the transactions. In a similar way, the document shows that SUNACRIP will depend on a technological frontier, that will ascertain for the execution and processing of such activities.

The ruling clearly defines commissions which stretch from 0.25 euros as the minimum rate per transaction up to 15% of the total funds transacted in crypto. Moreover, it perimeters and limits the sending of transmittals to a monthly sum which is equal to 10 Petros (PTR), a digital currency developed by the government of Venezuela.
