China is planning to launch the country’s first legally compliant secondary digital asset exchange. Its primary purpose is to enhance the development of the digital trade market in the country. As such, it will be government-regulated and will aim to promote a healthy and sustainable development of the virtual trade market.

The primary function of this platform is to support trading of property rights in digital assets. To this end, it will rely on a national-level infrastructure and will offer copyright protection services. In addition, it will serve as a reliable inventory service mechanism. It will also help to curb speculation in the digital market. However, it is still unclear what kinds of intellectual property will be supported.

The national secondary.digital asset exchange was developed by China’s government-backed China Technology Exchange (CTX) with the assistance of private companies, including Huaban Digital Copyright Service Center. According to its website, CTE’s main objective is to develop a comprehensive and stable system for trading digital assets. CTX’s activities are underpinned by a network of national-level institutions that include the State Intellectual Property Office, the China Cultural Protection Chain, and the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences.

During its first phase of operation, the platform will only accept digital collectibles that can be registered and verified. Users will be able to pay with Chinese yuan. Since it is not yet clear what sorts of intellectual property will be supported, the services and prices of the platform may change as the country continues to implement new policies.

The National Science Foundation has announced a plan to fund research in behavioral economics, socio-technical disciplines, and other areas of interest to the digital asset ecosystem. This will help to ensure that the ecosystem is developed in a way that will be user-friendly, while promoting equity and ensuring that it is optimized for usability.

In order to ensure that it is protecting users from fraud and other financial crimes, the platform will utilize the DAC Network, which will provide a central source of information. The DAC Network is composed of prosecutors from U.S. Attorneys’ Offices across the country, who will be able to serve as a subject matter expert on digital assets. Similarly, the Treasury Department and other agencies will work with foreign partners to identify risks and conduct bilateral information sharing.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has been working to regulate the secondary market for digital assets, and recently charged several platforms with violating exchange registration requirements. The SEC will be able to regulate both exchanges and dealers in digital assets. Brokers will be required to comply with anti-money laundering laws and tax reporting rules. FINRA is also responsible for regulating digital asset securities, and can revoke a broker’s license if he or she violates these laws.

Despite the challenges, the digital asset economy is expanding rapidly. While there are many hurdles to overcome, the United States is taking steps to address these issues and help its leading firms gain a foothold in the global marketplace.
