Some World Crypto News

1- The Russian Ministry of Justice has taken side in what looks like a lively debate about the status of cryptocurrencies that are still unregulated in the country. A bankruptcy case involving a modest amount of bitcoin has sparked discussions in Russian legal circles. Some say a crypto is nothing more than “a set of characters.” Others, including the justice minister, are categorical – cryptocurrency can’t be anything else but property.

2 - Venture capital firm Lightspeed Venture Partners is planning to launch its own cryptocurrency fund. Lightspeed is currently reviewing multiple options to increase its investment activity in the rapidly growing, but highly volatile, cryptocurrency industry.

3 - Colorado's secretary of state issued a rule change proposal that's open to the public, which would allow cryptocurrencies in campaign financing.

A committee may accept contributions in cryptocurrency, up to the acceptable limit for a cash or coin contribution. The amount of the contribution is the value of the cryptocurrency at the time of the contribution. The committee must report any gain or loss after the contribution as other income or receipts.

4 - The Swiss government will consider it’s options for creating a state-backed cryptocurrency. According to a Reuters report, the Federal Council of the Government of Switzerland requested a report into the risks and opportunities of launching its own cryptocurrency.

5 - As the G20 works to create a set of “unified regulations” in regards to cryptocurrencies, the government of South Korea — the third largest cryptocurrency market in the world — reportedly plans on playing ball with whichever policies the international forum of governments and central bank governors put into place.
