Zheng Xiaojun, chief economist of the world blockchain organization and President of the Caribbean blockchain Research Institute, introced the world blockchain organization at the tokensky blockchain conference in South Korea today. He mentioned that the Caribbean is the largest offshore area in the world, and a lot of international re export trade relies on the Caribbean for operation. However, 80% of the population in the region does not have bank accounts, and the financial infrastructure cannot be solved by traditional financial instruments. Therefore, the development and cooperation of blockchain in the world is very necessary
At the tokensky blockchain Conference on March 14-15, Zheng Xiaojun, director general of wbo, mentioned that the wbo licensing authority will issue three types of licenses: digital asset operation license (for ordinary digital asset companies), digital asset trading license (for digital currency exchanges, etc.) and ICO license (for ICO only projects, companies, etc.)
it is understood that the world blockchain organization is a non-governmental organization registered by the United Nations Economic and social affairs agency.

the wbo with endorsement from international organizations will issue licenses related to digital cryptocurrency and blockchain, which may provide clearer guidance on supervision and practice at the national level, and bridge the cooperation between countries
as a financial technology leader, the United States discussed cryptocurrency, ICO and whether the existing regulatory framework is sufficient to protect investors at the recent congressional cryptocurrency regulatory hearing. Many of them agreed that the regulatory authorities should clarify the legal status of encrypted assets, and ensure that the relevant processes comply with the law while helping entrepreneurs to innovate
No matter what the result is, the measures taken by these important organizations and governments show that they will not sit back and watch the currency circle and chain circle go disorderly
it is worth noting that on March 11, the blockchain instry alliance of China Hi Tech Instrialization Research Association also announced that it has officially joined the ranks of wbo sponsors, and Zhu Tao, chairman of the alliance, is also the deputy director general of the world blockchain organization. With the issuance of internationally recognized licenses, will China's policies be relaxed

The sponsors and other participants of these ICOS have not complied with our securities laws. Some people say this is because the law is not perfect. But I don't think so at the moment. "

"A lot of people think that ICO is a new thing and deny that ICO is a kind of security, but another way of financing," Clayton said. I don't think regulators have done a good job in this area. "<
