Laos Licenses 2 Cryptocurrency Trading Platforms

Laos Licenses 2 Cryptocurrency Trading Platforms

The central bank of Laos has issued licenses to two cryptocurrency trading platforms. Lao Digital Assets Exchange (LDX) and Bitqik are now the only two licensed entities that can offer full brokerage and trading services in cryptocurrencies and other digital assets in the country.




2 Cryptocurrency Exchanges Authorized in Laos



Laos’ central bank, the Bank of the Lao P.D.R. (BOL), has reportedly issued licenses to two companies to trade in cryptocurrencies, local media reported Wednesday.



The first authorized platform is Lao Digital Assets Exchange (LDX), a joint venture between the AIF Group and the Phongsupthavy Group. The second is Bitqik, a subsidiary of the Simuong Group.



The two companies are the only licensed and regulated entities in Laos that can offer full brokerage and trading services in cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. Both platforms are expected to provide full services in April. They will operate in full compliance with the central bank’s regulations.



BOL Governor Sonexay Sitphaxay said the central bank had put a lot of time and resources into establishing a regulatory framework for cryptocurrency, consulting with the business community, stakeholders, and government agencies.



The central bank will now monitor the two licensed platforms’ activities to ensure investor protection and improve existing regulations.





In August last year, the Lao central bank issued a notice warning the public about the use of cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin and ether. The central bank explained that cryptocurrencies are not a real currency and are unregulated in Laos. The BOL also urged investors to consider the risks associated with cryptocurrencies before investing in them.



Nonetheless, Laos authorized the mining and trading of cryptocurrencies in September last year. The office of the prime minister said at the time that six companies had been authorized to mine and trade cryptocurrency while regulators worked to establish a full regulatory framework for crypto.

Bitcoin Recovers, but will BTC Bulls Pump Prices to $50k?

Bitcoin prices have been both hot and cold. The freeze of September 20 was countered by the warmth of September 22, which offered a relief rally for permabulls. When writing, BTC prices are pretty much constant, oscillating within a tight range above January 2021 highs. Waving Bitcoin Price Action The bounce from the expected reaction zone was a sigh for traders who, after September 20 dip, expected the worst. Admittedly, even with these losses, the uptrend is still shaky from an Effort-versus-Results perspective. For example, in the weekly chart, there is a double bar bearish reversal pattern. At the same time, in the daily chart, BTC prices are still trending below the 20-day moving average. Besides, despite the recovery of September 22, the bar has lighter trading volumes. From volumes analysis, this is week and doesn’t bode well for chartists who still sense weakness in the uptrend, potentially more room for even more losses in the days ahead.

What form of digital assets will be the future of payments?

Not all digital assets would be treated as sternly as cryptocurrencies and not all of them will become the future of money. We’re living in a time where digital assets are moving towards mainstream adoption. From retail customers to traditional banks and financial service providers, digital assets are on the rise. Many of these assets promised to disrupt financial markets and large incumbents, and while they have received widespread attention, they haven’t quite achieved their potential. That said, large institutions are taking notice — 86% of the world’s central banks are exploring digital currencies , according to a report by the Bank for International Settlements. They recognize that despite being in a golden age of innovation, payment systems remain somewhat archaic. And so, in my view, there is no reason why current payment systems won’t follow a similar trajectory to industries that have been transformed by new technolog...
