How can blockchain be legal
Chinese Mahjong: the world's earliest blockchain project
first of all, a initiates an application. I want to play mahjong and set up a mahjong Bureau, which is equivalent to creating a block, and this block will be broadcast to B, C, D, a, B, C, C, C, C, C, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D, D D...
in the process of playing mahjong, the above four people constantly play cards, which can be understood as mining, through what to mine? Mahjong machine can understand the mineralization machine. These four miners are the so-called miners. These four miners collide from 144 mahjong, and any right card can be Hu card. We can understand the 144 mahjong as a series of hash values (numbers). The process of Hu card is called computational power. Until Hu card, it means that the right hash value is collided and you can get a reward, Each person will pay the corresponding chips to C and put them in the blockchain. The reward is bitcoin or other virtual coins
Why do the other three people take the initiative to reward C? That's because these people have automatically reached a consensus that C has indeed won, and everyone has recorded the account, including the family members who are sitting next to buy horses. It's not good to deny it, otherwise when it comes out that the character is not good, no one will play with him again. After all, the circle is very important
when we reached a consensus, we didn't see any intermediary or third party judging that C had won, and the rewards given to C didn't need to be transferred to C through the third party. All of them were direct point-to-point transactions. This process was decentralization. The card players (miners) recorded their own achievements in the first game, and the third team won the first game, After the record is completed, a complete block is generated. But remember, this is only the first round. In the whole blockchain, this is just a node. The first eight rounds are finished, that is, eight nodes (blocks). Eight blocks are connected together to form a complete account book, which is the blockchain. Because everyone has one account book, it is a distributed account book. The purpose is to prevent someone from tampering with records. In the end, it is clear who wins or loses.
on April 9, 2017, Hangzhou municipal government and a company jointly set up a $10 billion xiongan global blockchain innovation fund, which can promote the development of blockchain projects. This initiative has also attracted the attention of many relevant financial people. At present, Hangzhou blockchain Instrial Park is one of the important initiatives funded and developed by the municipal government, I believe this case has also become one of the representative cases in China. Since then, more and more blockchains have developed all over the country<
at present, China has a new understanding of digital currency, analyzing the value of digital currency in essence, and relevant departments are also actively participating in the corresponding research. The central bank has set up a special research group and digital currency Research Institute, hoping to further explore the digitalization of sovereign currency. From the side, it can be seen that China has a positive attitude towards blockchain technology, and the Chinese government has repeatedly stressed the important role of blockchain technology in reshaping the global financial pattern
with the development of global economy, the Chinese government has realized the commercial development of domestic blockchain projects. From the blockchain projects invested by Hangzhou municipal government, it can be seen that more and more provinces will start to carry out blockchain projects in the future, which can promote the development of local economy
is blockchain legal in China? At present, the Chinese government is actively studying blockchain, and has carried out blockchain related projects in some provinces. Through the above introction, I believe that people should have a certain understanding of the blockchain. I believe that in the near future, there will be more and more blockchain projects, which can promote the development of domestic economy and enable more and more people to get more wealth from blockchain projects.
the current blockchain project compliance is divided into two sections:
first, blockchain coin issuing project compliance: Foundation + legal compliance opinion
often referred to as ICO, IEO, etc. first of all, we build overseas entities. Generally speaking, most coin issuing entities choose Singapore foundation. It is a non-profit company in the form of XX Foundation Ltd. Finally, a legal compliance opinion is issued by a Singapore lawyer. The content of the legal opinion includes the amendment of a white paper and the token non securitization certificate, which is mainly to make the project comply with the laws of Singapore. This legal opinion is also needed for the later docking of the project with the currency on the exchange< Second, blockchain exchange project compliance: subject company + digital currency trading license:
license is one of the important compliance documents of the platform. It is equivalent to a business license. In particular, after Huoyuan won the Japanese license, the US license and applied for the Canadian license, the license was pushed to a new height. Obtaining the US MSB license also means that the company can reasonably conct business in most states of the United States. This is the reason why the major platforms have started to apply for licenses. If they want to carry out business formally and legally, they have to apply for licenses
for example: MSB digital currency exchange license in the United States, MTR digital currency + Wallet al license in Estonia, austrac digital currency license in Australia, etc
the role of MSB license in the United States:
1. American MSB license is famous, packaging platform and good publicity
2
3. It can increase the trust of customers, enhance their visibility, and make the platform develop better and faster in compliance
advantages of MSB license
1. Investor recognition - Corporate Law and financial instry regulation in the United States are very perfect. With a U.S. license, your digital currency trading platform will be more recognized by global investors
2. Get authoritative approval - with the authoritative approval of the U.S. Treasury Department, you can carry out relevant business in the United States and around the world, which represents the compliance supervision of digital currency platform
3. Become a first-line platform -- MSB license is also a standard license for global digital currency trading institutions. Coinbase, bitfinex, poloiex, hotcoin.com, OK, coin security exchange and other platforms all hold this license to operate
4. Diversified services - MSB license allows currency exchange and delivery services, so that you can better meet customer needs and provide more diversified services
why is the license so important for the trading platform? First of all, people in the traditional foreign exchange circle know that the foreign exchange platform has the importance of supervising the license. Even such a traditional mode will create a future trading platform. Therefore, the license plate is bound to become a trend of development
after registering the main body of the foundation, we still need to do later legal compliance, the main purpose is to draw a clear line between law and crime, but I said it doesn't count. Because digital token is indispensable for blockchain. To put it bluntly, digital currency drives the popularization of blockchain in China, but what's the fact? Digital currency is just a small application of blockchain technology
e to the particularity of the instry, At present, there are no formal laws and regulations to restrict its development, involving a wide range of violations:
pyramid selling
illegal fund-raising
money laundering
absorbing public deposits
illegal operation
transnational foreign exchange crimes
providing more convenience for terrorist financing
therefore, different countries in the world have different attitudes towards blockchain, and China is explicitly prohibited, So we all go overseas to develop projects, such as Singapore and Thailand. First, the local laws and regulations are required. Who has the final say in the matter of whether the project is legal? There are two ways: to apply for a formal digital transaction license or to rely on a legal opinion issued by a lawyer. At present, the latter is in the majority, easy to operate and low cost.
Singapore blockchain ICO company
according to the analysis of market results, at present, 70% of the companies registered in Singapore are public companies, and 30% are private limited companies in particular, there is no legal entity in Singapore called "foundation". What we usually call registered Singapore foundation refers to the type of public company Singapore public company: 1. Independent legal entity

note: after the registration of general for-profit foundation, there is no need to audit if there is no bank account, while the annual inspection and audit of non-profit foundation must be done every year after the registration
after the Singapore blockchain ICO company established the Singapore foundation, if it wants to issue currency, it will also involve four certificates:
1. White paper compliance: to prove that the projects undertaken by the foundation are in line with Singapore regulations, to prevent MAS (monetary authority of Singapore) investigation, which need to be used when going to the exchange
2. Token non securitization proof: prove that the project is non securitized, avoid causing trouble, and securitization is unable to engage in block chain related business in Singapore
3. Compliance of private placement terms: proving that the fund raising and sales concted before going to the exchange are legal and compliant
4. Compliance of public offering terms: it is equivalent to the commitment made to the majority of investors after going to the stock exchange, increasing the confidence of investors
note: the above certificates can be provided by Bajie Singapore lawyers
With the development of blockchain, there are more and more ICO projects and exchanges in the blockchain instry. How should so many projects develop in compliance
the current blockchain project compliance is divided into two sections:
first, blockchain coin project compliance: Foundation + legal compliance opinion:
in addition to Singapore, the United States and the United Kingdom have more choices. The registration fees of these two countries are low, and the registration process is simple. However, if the currency is issued by the exchange later, the United Kingdom and the United States can not provide the corresponding legal services
from the perspective of compliance in the later stage, we should choose Singapore foundation
the government of Singapore not only supports the government policy, but also stipulates that the blockchain foundation can be registered and managed by acra to obtain legal issuance projects, which will make Singapore a financial technology center and blockchain technology center in the next world with its own competitiveness. Therefore, Singapore can be said to be a paradise for blockchain entrepreneurs
advantages of registering Singapore Foundation:
first, non-profit public companies are easier to let investors trust than ordinary companies.
Second, the government supports the development of blockchain, and the policy environment is good.
third, the market is mature, and the follow-up legal services are perfect.
Fourth, excellent and well-known projects are also in Singapore: for example, Laite coin, which is better than the original chain, Fifth, the price is reasonable and cost-effective. Sixth, local lawyers in Singapore can issue relevant legal opinions according to the needs of the project parties to prove the compliance and legality of the project Ordinary companies are not allowed to issue legal opinions)
how to register the Singapore foundation and what information should be provided
1. Provide company name
2. Information of two registered members, one Singapore director, registered address in Singapore, Singapore Secretary (nominal)
3. Business scope
4. Registered capital: default 1 Singapore dollar
after the registration of the main foundation, it is not the end, but just the beginning. After the registration certificate and other documents come out, the professional lawyers of the bar association of Singapore also need to modify and issue legal opinions according to the project plan, which is commonly known as the white paper. To prove that the project is in accordance with the laws of Singapore and can carry on business normally
as we all know, it is forbidden to issue xunihuobi in our country. The legal opinion is in line with the laws of Singapore, and it depends on the legal proceres. The legal opinion can only be issued by a lawyer who meets the requirements. In addition, the white paper is in compliance. The legality of the white paper written by him cannot be guaranteed, and if he is not a lawyer, he does not understand the laws of Singapore, This is very important; Another aspect is for investors, to have legal documents to prove that the project is legal in Singapore, investors will be more assured, then they need some supporting documents
to register a foundation is only the first step, and the most important thing that needs to be done next is cooperation&# 8204; Yes,
now the bigger exchanges need you to issue legal compliance to let you go to the exchange. Therefore, the legal opinions needed to go to the exchange are actually a general term. The legal compliance actually includes several items, such as token non securitization certificate, white paper compliance, private placement terms, public offering terms, etc. Most of these exchanges will require token non securitization certification, and the white paper is equivalent to a normal business plan. After it is written, it needs professional Singapore lawyers to modify it, which is in line with Singapore's laws and regulations. Most companies on the exchange will choose to give legal opinions
the white paper has four main functions
first, it reports to MAS in Singapore, and is not afraid of being investigated in the future
Second, to convince investors that the company is legal and compliant, and to reassure investorsthirdly, it is necessary to use in the stock exchange
Fourthly, rece unnecessary investmentthere is also a token filing (non securitization certificate filing), and Singapore lawyers only need to provide a white paper, articles of association, registration paper and registration certificate to prevent MAS verification of monetary authority of Singapore
Second, blockchain exchange project compliance: subject company + digital currency trading license:as one of the important compliance documents of the platform. It is equivalent to a business license. In particular, after Huoyuan won the Japanese license, the US license and applied for the Canadian license, the license was pushed to a new height.

At the same time, the Singapore government not only gives policy support, but also stipulates that the blockchain foundation can be registered and managed by acra to obtain legal issuance projects, which is one of the reasons why the Singapore foundation should be registered.
