- Summary
- Luxembourg was one of the first countries to officially declare cryptocurrencies to be currencies in 2014 and was the first country to grant a payment institution licence to a bitcoin exchange in April 2016. However, the Financial Sector Monitoring Commission has warned about the risks of investing in cryptocurrencies. There’s no legal framework that specifically deals with cryptocurrencies.
