Cryptoassets and Civil Procedure Law (Singapore edition) examines how Singapore’s civil procedure law responds to the advent of cryptoassets.

It is divided into 13 parts. Each part is dedicated to a problem that a party to a civil proceeding before the Singapore courts may face. The solution provided by Singapore’s civil procedure law is discussed, as well as an analysis of how well that solution responds to the advent of cryptoassets. Given the borderless nature of cryptoassets, this publication also discusses the enforcement or recognition of Singapore court judgments by the courts of foreign jurisdictions.

Tackling the question of all questions, i.e., whether cryptoassets are property in the eyes of the law, Cryptoassets and Property Law (Singapore edition):

• considers evolving definitions that impact dealing in various forms of cryptoassets;
• delves into how the courts in Singapore are shaping the contours of case law in this largely unregulated space;
• analyses gaps in judicial responses and the existing statutory framework for treating cryptoassets as property; and
• puts forward options to better address those gaps.
