Ghada Waly, direktur eksekutif kantor PBB untuk narkoba dan kejahatan, berpendapat bahwa membatasi penggunaan cryptocurrency dapat membantu membuat internet sedikit lebih aman.
Pada 18 Agustus, Waly menekankan bahwa fokusnya harus pada pemeriksaan bagaimana aset digital digunakan secara tidak sah selama sesi dengan Forum Ekonomi Dunia. Khususnya, banyak aset telah digunakan dalam kejahatan terlarang seperti akuisisi obat-obatan dan pencucian uang selama pertumbuhan cryptocurrency.
Waly berpendapat bahwa pembatasan penggunaan di tingkat nasional harus didahulukan, diikuti dengan pengembangan kapasitas di antara berbagai pemangku kepentingan.
Wali berkata:
“Ada unsur peningkatan kapasitas dan regulasi nasional, tapi ada juga investigasi yang mengumpulkan bukti. Ada keseluruhan cerita tentang cryptocurrency dan bagaimana itu digunakan di internet dalam bentuk ilegal. Ini adalah intervensi kecil di mana banyak investasi perlu dilakukan dalam infrastruktur dalam pembangunan kapasitas di ruang keamanan siber.”
Eksekutif mengakui bahwa sebagian besar pemerintah tidak memiliki peraturan menyeluruh yang dapat mengatasi masalah kejahatan dunia maya baru.
Penting untuk dicatat bahwa eksekutif lebih menekankan pada membujuk anggota PBB untuk mempertimbangkan penggunaan kriminal cryptocurrency sambil memerangi jenis kejahatan baru seperti yang ada di darknet.

Dia menunjukkan bahwa berkonsentrasi pada cryptocurrency memberikan peluang untuk membuat peraturan yang sesuai dan berdasarkan fakta untuk memerangi kejahatan.
Untuk melindungi publik, berbagai organisasi PBB menyerukan regulasi cryptocurrency.
Konferensi Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa tentang Perdagangan dan Pembangunan (UNCTAD) mencatat bahwa mata uang digital pribadi menimbulkan bahaya bagi kedaulatan moneter negara, opsi kebijakan, dan stabilitas ekonomi makro selain mendukung kegiatan kriminal.
Selain itu, penjahat semakin merangkul aset digital yang berfokus pada privasi seperti Monero karena regulator memperketat penggunaan aset seperti Bitcoin dalam kejahatan.
