Attorney Antonio Tejeda Encinas CEO of Meta Channel Corp, President of the Euro-American Committee on Digital Law
Blockchain’s role in digital transformation is unprecedented, and the publication of the report “The Role of Blockchain Roadmaps” in 2021 established an essential framework for guiding the adoption and regulation of this technology in the UNITED KINGDOM and INTERNATIONALLY. Since its publication, however, the blockchain ecosystem has evolved rapidly, and many of the challenges anticipated years ago have given way to new opportunities and emerging issues such as DeFi, DAOs and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Although the report remains an important milestone in recognizing the need to build evidence-based policies and foster international collaboration, current circumstances call for new updates addressing the technological and regulatory advances that have occurred since then. Emerging areas such as digital governance and identity management remain key, but it is now also essential to consider the impact of NFTs, smart contracts and interoperability among blockchain systems.
At Meta Channel Corporation, as leading REPRESENTATIVES in cybersecurity, digital transformation and the wider infrastructure of the digital ecosystem in the broadest sense, both in Latin America and Europe, we support the continued evolution of these regulatory frameworks. We believe it is crucial for policies and roadmaps to remain up to date and aligned with new technological realities.
International collaboration not only remains key but is now more important than ever to ensure that emerging technologies such as blockchain are implemented effectively and equitably, benefiting businesses, governments and citizens alike.
