India’s cryptocurrency landscape is amassing strength as the growth of crypto-assets and the technologies underlying it is captivating retail investors and entrepreneurs throughout the nation. On one hand, where the technological innovations related to crypto-assets are offering promising potentials with public blockchain technologies and the use of smart contracts in the operations, on the other hand, the newness of the ecosystem and the absence of a regulatory framework in India is inhibiting the sector from gaining trust and exposing the investors to small risks.

Recently the Indian government indicated that it was planning to introduce a bill on cryptocurrency and its plan for a Central Banking Digital Currency during the budget session of the parliament. Through the bill, it wanted to bring a regulatory framework around crypto, use its underlying technology, and through the Reserve Bank of India build its own CBDC. The Indian crypto stakeholders such as us are actively engaging with the Indian government to allow India to have the crypto industry function under friendlier regulations where the operators work within the legal framework of the land and are taxed accordingly.

These models also help us to foresee the outstanding debt obligations of the company, the current funding they have received, incoming revenues, and the covering of the entire scope of the project with these numbers. Outside the financial models, we track the revenue generation spots, exchange listings, the token allocation models which subsequently affect the supply of the token.

With computerized money, India has the opportunity to take maximum advantage of investing in computerized and decentralized assets. Such investments require a strong foundation of awareness, education, and infrastructure which frameworks like 7M ensures from the very first day. Extraordinary circumstances need extraordinary measures and laying down investor-friendly structures which protect their funds and help them adopt an industry that is moving at an unbelievable pace.
