CERDAS HERRERA, Malberth    ASTORGA CERDAS, Carlos. Analysis of Possible Economic and Legal Impacts of the Implementation of Cryptocurrencies in Costa Rica. []. , 14, 1, pp.1-29. ISSN 2215-2989.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/rr.v14i1.5177.

This research addresses the development of crypto assets throughout history and their current relevance in international financial markets. It focuses on how they have been implemented in the Costa Rican market, as well as their impact on the current economy. Based on this economic framework, the issue of applicable legal regulation is addressed, especially whether they are subject to economic regulation by the State, either as an equivalent to money or as an investment mechanism. It is concluded that they have a relevant existence in the Costa Rican financial market, but despite this, there is no current legal framework that extends to their regulation.
