From the UK Jurisdiction Taskforce, a 64-page publication on the status of cryptoassets and smart contracts.

The objective of the attached Legal Statement is to provide the best possible answers to the critical legal questions under English law.

It covers these issues and much more:

– Cryptoassets as property

– Ownership and transfer

– Possession and action

– Security

– Insolvency

– Transferability and negotiability

Below is the link to my Linkedin posting with the Legal Statement available in pdf format:

This paper is supposed to go a long way towards providing much needed market confidence, legal certainty and predictability in areas that are of great importance to the technological and legal communities.
