The report also emphasized the importance of developing robust frameworks for overseeing digital assets and aligning them with global efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, a Chinese court previously ruled that <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/crypto-clarified-as-personal-property-in-china-remains-barred-for-businesses\/\">owning cryptocurrencies<\/a> is legal. Still, it emphasized their use is strictly limited to personal ownership or commodities\u2014not as a payment method or investment vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>Despite recognizing the industry's potential, Chinese regulators remain cautious.
