[MAGS 🔑⛏️🚒 @Crypto_Mags]

Today Canadian Securities Regulators (CSA) released additional guidance to help #cryptoasset platforms determine when #securities legislation applies

The TL;DR is ⤵️

[MAGS 🔑⛏️🚒 @Crypto_Mags]

Congratulations @fpye @3iq_corp team & @Osler_Law!

You've broken ground & lead the pack in a landmark ruling for a regulated #BitcoinFund

This is a massive victory for 🇨🇦 retail investors; now anyone can #HODL #Bitcoin in their #TFSA & #RRSP

.@Koleyayyc kicks off #blockchainABweek! #Alberta is gunning to take the lead on #blockchain in 🇨🇦

The thriving #blockchain ecosystem here, led by the @Blockchain_ABC, can grow the economy, modernize legacy industry, bridge the skills gap, & support women & indigenous workers 💪🏼

[Eric Kryski @ekryski]

This is important for the #crypto & #blockchain industry both at home in 🇨🇦 and abroad. Some great first steps. Proud to play a part.

🇨🇦 Gov proposing to treat #bitcoin #crypto as a financial instrument: https://t.co/gZIQjCRcny

This is POSITIVE news! W/out this reg clarity, exchanges, OTC desks, miners may have needed to collect & remit HST on all sales

Industry: Comment on the consultation to show support!💪🏼

1/ #FinCEN's new #cryptoasset guidance on U.S. #AML law, with respect to various types of cryptoasset businesses, is a great resource for regulators.
