Crypto-Asset Issuance – ICO – Whitepaper

Who Needs a Whitepaper?

Every crypto-asset issuer is required to prepare a whitepaper – a detailed informational document containing key details about the project, the team behind it, the economics of the crypto-asset (tokenomics), the associated rights and obligations, the underlying technology, and an overview of related risks.

Essentially, it is the equivalent of issuance terms or a prospectus for issuing stocks or bonds.

The whitepaper must be notified to the CNB. For specific types of tokens – stablecoins (asset-referenced tokens or electronic money tokens), CNB approval is also required.
