The Canadian Federal Government is Looking For Feedback on Regulations Pertaining to Digital Assets & Bitcoin
Concerning Restrictions on Coinjoining and the assumption of Blockchain Data being "True" for evidence in a court of law, likely related to Chainalysis lobbying efforts nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx
Submissions are due August 1st and can be made by emailing fcs-scf@fin.gc.ca with "Consultation Submission" as the subject line.
There are several concerning questions...1. Should reporting entities be prohibited from transferring (and receiving) virtual currencies to (and from) crypto-mixers/crypto-tumblers that are not registered with FINTRAC?
2. Should the government amend legislation to mitigate vulnerabilities of large cash transactions, for instance by:
• Extending large cash reporting requirements to all businesses in 🇨🇦 over a certain threshold, or
• Prohibiting cash purchases over a certain threshold?
3. Should the Criminal Code be amended to better enable the seizure & restraint of digital assets including cryptocurrency for evidentiary purposes or as offence-related property?
• Is there a need to amend the Canada Evidence Act to provide for blockchain data as evidence?
