According to the law, crypto exchange platforms will be able to operate in this country, and companies and individuals are authorized to transact on this platform. The law contemplates the creation of a legal and regulatory framework that seems poised to usher in a new era of adoption on the territory.


In February, e was invaded by the n Federation, led by Vladimir Putin. The international community responded by cutting ties with  and imposing unprecedented sanctions.


At the same time, e asked for donations from around the world to fight against the army which they consider an invader. The crypto community was one of the most eager to help.


The ian government acknowledged this intention and quickly set up crypto addresses to receive funds in Bitcoin and Ethereum. The response from the digital asset community was overwhelming, and e expanded its addresses to accept donations in Dogecoin (DOGE), Polkadot (DOT), Solana (SOL), and others.


This initiative has been led by e's Ministry for Digital Transformation led by Mykhailo Fedorov. Commenting on the recent law on crypto, Fedorov said:


The signing of this law by the president is another important step towards bringing the crypto sector out of the shadows and launching a legal market for virtual assets in e.


Estimations claimed the country has received over $100 million in digital asset donations. A part of which has been used to purchase military equipment, and the other to purchase other vital items.


The law was vetoed by Zelenskyy back in 2020, the president argued that it could be expensive to create a new regulatory framework for digital assets. These contributions have convinced the e government to change their stand and become more friendly towards the asset class that could change the outcome of the war.




The Future Of Crypto In e


In addition to providing citizens with access to cryptocurrencies and exchange platforms, the law placed these assets under regulatory supervision by the National Commission on Securities and Stock Market.


In the coming months, the Ministry for Digital Transformation and the Ministry of Finance will work together to amend current laws and launch a market for digital assets. Fedorov added:


Foreign and ian crypto companies will be able to operate legally, while ians will have convenient and secure access to the global market for virtual assets.


The change in regulations, the legalization of digital assets, and its national acceptance could make more ian citizens likely to adopt these assets. Thus, donations and P2P transactions with digital assets could see a boost.


Reports from leading crypto exchange platforms, and their leadership, claim a lot of people have turned to these assets as  prologues its assault. As banking institutions fail, digital assets are there to fill the void and help people on both sides of the conflict.
