Abstract

Cryptocurrencies are gaining wider acceptance year after year all over the world as evident from the perennial increase in the volume of trade. But they are associated with high degree of risks including greater volatility in the prices besides the absence of government support. However, there is no comprehensive law in India to regulate the crypto-trading and to ensure that illegal activities are not funded with crypto-related activities. Therefore, it is necessary for the Government to enact a comprehensive law at the earliest.
