Abstract

The Bitcoin phenomenon is undoubtedly one of the most important and recent realities the virtual financial and economic world is experiencing. Bitcoin reality owes its birth and successive development to the Net, with which the same Bitcoin system is inextricably linked in its fortunes and mechanisms. As for the case of the Internet, the expansion of which raised at the beginning scepticism and concern (fuelled by the belief that the Net, poorly regulated, was incentive for crime), the Bitcoin also seems currently to yield the same fears and prejudices. The purpose of the Authors is to clarify the legal nature and meaning that Bitcoin would have in a prospective and desirable legislation in the Italian legal system. After a general introduction to the subject, the essay covers the issues of the monetary nature of bitcoin, its legal framework (with regard to the CJEU judgment of the 22nd October 2015), the differences between the electronic money and the relative legislation, the comparison with other legal systems and the prospective progress that the Bitcoin and its technology would have in the Italian socio-economic outlook.

After a general introduction to the subject, the essay covers the issues of the monetary nature of bitcoin, its legal framework (with regard to the CJEU judgment of the 22nd October 2015), the differences between the electronic money and the relative legislation, the comparison with other legal systems and the prospective progress that the Bitcoin and its technology would have in the Italian socio-economic outlook.
