Is there a risk of funds being unavailable at the time of transaction resolution?

The funds are guaranteed to be available at the time the escrow is resolved. Accepted cryptocurrencies are rigorously selected, and any potential volatility is accounted for at the time of deposit, with over-collateralization by the buyer when necessary. The conversion to fiat currency is guaranteed at the time of escrow resolution.

What are the risks to consider?

When using cryptocurrencies, beyond the usual regulatory risks, additional risks may arise from the type of cryptocurrency the buyer wants to use and how it is secured. Legibloq addresses these issues by selecting the accepted cryptocurrencies and using a regulated solution that involves a strict compliance process and a secure, dedicated storage.

Is there any specific taxation to consider?

In France, taxation for cryptocurrencies includes the flat tax on capital gains (or income tax) for the buyer. Our experts can guide you on the specific tax implications of your transaction, ensuring full compliance with regulations.

What are the legal obligations when dealing with cryptocurrencies?

As with any financial transaction, the legal obligations include identifying the buyer and the origin of their funds, as well as compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and anti-terrorism financing regulations. Legibloq ensures this compliance throughout the entire transaction process.

What types of escrow arrangements are possible?

We offer a conventional escrow adapted to transaction needs, providing security and flexibility for different types of operations.
