Abstract
In the context of digital transformation driven by the development of information and telecommunication technologies, the Russian economy has faced challenges associated with the introduction of a new form of money. The purpose of the study is to distinguish between the concepts of cryptocurrency and legitimate digital money, to determine the risks of their use and ways to reduce the negative impact on the economy. The main result of the study is an assessment of the existing regulatory framework, taking into account the experience of legislative regulation of cryptocurrencies abroad, as well as the formulation of areas for its improvement.
