The summit, which was hosted by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi (and attended by leaders including President Biden), issued a joint declaration that included a section on crypto policy — an indicator that governments around the world see the growing need for clarity in crypto regulation. Here’s what you need to know.</p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word"><strong>What is the G20?</strong></p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word">The Group of 20 is a <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">consortium of many of the world’s largest economies</a>, consisting of 19 countries and the European Union. Members — including the U.S., China, Russia, India, and South Africa — meet annually in an attempt to coordinate policy around issues that impact the global economy. Key issues up for discussion this year included the war in Ukraine, global climate policy, and crypto regulation. </p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word"><strong>Why was crypto on this year’s agenda?</strong></p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word">There’s growing international consensus on the need for regulatory clarity in crypto. According to a <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">recent Coinbase report</a>, “83% of G20 members and major financial hubs have made progress toward regulatory clarity for crypto.” </p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word">The host country sets the agenda, and since last year, major Indian political figures have been signaling their intention to <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">make crypto a key topic</a>, with the country’s finance minister <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">saying</a> that "no one single country can succeed in individually, being in a silo, trying to regulate the crypto assets.” In the runup to this year’s meeting, India also requested that the International Monetary Fund and Financial Stability Board detail a roadmap toward a global crypto regulatory framework and policy recommendations. </p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word"><strong>Which crypto topics were discussed at the G20?</strong></p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word">Participating countries agreed to work toward implementing the IMF-FSB policy roadmap — although the plan is short on specifics. Instead, it provides <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">broad recommendations</a>: that countries shouldn’t implement outright bans of crypto, that they should institute sound monetary policies to ensure that citizens don’t begin to prefer crypto over fiat currencies in the long run, and that central banks shouldn’t hold crypto. Because G20 resolutions are non-binding, actual regulations will come from each member’s domestic legislative process.</p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word"><strong>What happens next? </strong></p><p style="margin:16px 0px 0px; line-height:1.6; word-break:break-word">As India’s <a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">G20 presidency</a> winds down, all eyes are turning toward Brazil, which will assume the presidency in December, and which is expected to have a more progressive<a href="#" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> approach to crypto</a> as a global leader in crypto regulation.
