The first government in the world is set to review the characteristics of cryptocurrencies as part of the token mapping process
Australia is set to become the first country to conduct the process of cryptocurrency mapping, according to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
The process of token mapping involves defining the characteristics of specific cryptocurrencies, including such popular meme coins as Dogecoin.
According to a poll published in December, Binance Coin, Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Ethereum were among the popular coins in Australia.
The government is set to introduce a consultation paper on digital assets in the near future.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers has noted that the cryptocurrency market remains mostly unregulated in the country. Hence, it is necessary to develop mechanisms that would improve investor protection.
