The incident of TON with the "Golden Visa" of the United Arab Emirates demonstrates the importance of legal reviews
The TON Foundation could have avoided the controversy over the Golden Visa in the United Arab Emirates with a brief legal review, according to a local lawyer who spoke to Cointelegraph.
The mistake of The Open Network (TON) Foundation with the Golden Visa (or golden visa) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) highlights the need to comply with legislation and conduct proper review, a local lawyer has stated.
The premature announcement about TON's Golden Visa in the UAE aimed to benefit the community, but it ran into the complex local regulations regarding cryptocurrencies, according to Irina Heaver, founder of NeosLegal.
With five regulators overseeing the activity of cryptocurrency service providers (CASP) in the UAE and the strict marketing rules of Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), ensuring compliance with local regulations requires proper legal assessment.
"Even with the support of local government officials, it is necessary to promote cryptocurrency transactions in full compliance with federal and local laws," Heaver told Cointelegraph, adding that activities regulated by CASP, such as staking and token-related offerings, require special attention.
