#DigitalAssetBill is legislation introduced in the Parliament of the United Kingdom that seeks to recognize a third category of personal property, specifically for digital assets such as crypto-tokens and NFTs. Traditionally, English law distinguishes between **things in possession** (physical objects) and **things in action** (rights that require legal action to be claimed). This bill clarifies that digital assets can be the subject of property rights, even if they do not fit into these traditional categories.
The initiative arises from recommendations from the **Law Commission of England and Wales**, which identified the need to adapt the legal framework to the evolution of digital assets. Furthermore, the government has accepted the proposal to establish a group of experts to address technical and legal issues related to these assets.
