Chinese Banking Associations warn of NFT-related risks<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In a statement released today, China's Internet Financial Association, China Banking Association,\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> and China Securities Association said they want to “resolutely curb” the tendency for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to be financialized and securitized, as well as limit the risk of illegal financial activities involving the tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two of these three self-governing bodies said about a year ago that their members are prohibited from doing business with crypto businesses, kicking off one of China's most significant crackdowns yet. Only a few days later, the country's top administrative body, the State Council, called for a crackdown on crypto mining and trade.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three organizations said in a statement released today that NFTs have the ability to boost “the digitalization of industries and digital industrialization,” but cautioned against financial hazards such as asset hype, money laundering, and other unlawful financial activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financial dangers deriving from hype and speculative trading have previously been cited by Chinese officials as justifications for cracking down on cryptocurrency <\/a>in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Six behavioral principles were specified by the organizations: NFTs do not represent underlying assets such as securities or precious metals; the non-fungibility of the tokens must not be weakened by methods such as dividing them so that the distribution mechanism does not change; centralized trading <\/a>should not be offered; pricing and settlement of NFT transactions should not include cryptocurrencies; platforms must perform real-name authentication and anti-money laundering, and financing support for NFT investments should not be offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The state media and municipal governments have also issued periodic warnings about the NFT market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consumers could also protect themselves by adopting the “proper consumption idea,” avoiding speculative investments, and avoiding unlawful financing operations, according to today's announcement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
