Syria's Bitcoin Legalization Plan Aims to Reshape Financial Future

Syria is preparing for financial reform aimed at legalizing Bitcoin and utilizing digital currencies to stabilize its economy.

Bitcoin Legalization Plan

The Syrian Center for Economic Research has proposed a plan for the transitional government to adopt Bitcoin and other digital currencies to combat inflation and attract foreign investment. The plan includes digitizing the Syrian pound using blockchain technology and backing it with Bitcoin, gold, and dollars. It also involves legalizing BTC mining and trade within a strict regulatory framework to prevent monopolies and environmental damage.

Challenges and Prospects

Despite ambitious goals, Syria faces numerous challenges, including foreign sanctions, inadequate technical infrastructure, and debts from the previous government. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin may allow Syria to bypass traditional banking institutions, but success requires significant technological investment and international collaboration.

Ethics and Legality

It is crucial to distinguish the proposal from the controversial use of cryptocurrencies by terrorist groups. The Syrian Center for Economic Research seeks to establish a transparent financial system under the transitional government's supervision, intended to benefit the entire Syrian population. In contrast, groups like Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham have reportedly used digital currencies to fund their operations.

If the proposed strategy is implemented, Syria could become a regional leader in cryptocurrency adoption. However, the success of the plan depends on overcoming longstanding political and financial obstacles.
