The issue of their legality is still controversial among countries in the world, but their concept and mechanism of creation, work and exchange have become evident to everyone. The study reached several recommendations, the most important of which is that Digital currencies are growing day by day, and dealing with them may become a necessity. Therefore, jurists shall set rules that allow dealing with them after adhering to these rules. It also recommended developing a culture in society to raise awareness of the use of cryptocurrencies so that they are not exposed to any risks.
