金融行动特别工作组[防洗钱]，也被称为FATF，发布了一份新报告，重点针对虚拟货币。具体而言，报告涵盖了“关键定义”和这些新兴支付方式“潜在反洗钱/反恐融资（ML/ TF）的风险”。
金融行动工作组研究了虚拟货币的特性，对此付款方法相关的ML/ TF风险进行了初步评估。评估风险并制定适当的措施的重要一步，是对不同类型的虚拟货币有清晰的认识，以及如何控制和使用它们。该报告确定了关键定义的概念框架，这可能会成为进一步制定政策的基础。
15页的文件概述了涉及数字货币的内在风险。当然，我们已经一次又一次听到这些事情。我们正在谈论的匿名问题，参与者的身份限制，以及去中心化问题。
这是目前的现状，报告针对执法官员的目标，是用最近发生的事情做例子教育他们数字货币有很大风险。
金融行动特别工作组成立于1989年，是由G7峰会倡议的政府间组织。巴黎总部的任务是制定政策以防止洗钱和金融犯罪。

The Financial Action Task Force [on Money Laundering], also known as FATF, has released a new report focusing on virtual currencies. Specifically, the report covers “key definitions” and “potential AML/CFT risks” of these emerging payment methods.
The FATF conducted research into the characteristics of virtual currencies to make a preliminary assessment of the ML/TF risk associated with this payment method. An important step in assessing the risks and developing an appropriate response, is to have a clear understanding of the various types of virtual currencies and how they are controlled and used. This report establishes a conceptual framework of key definitions, which could form the basis for further policy development.
The 15-page document serves as an outline of the inherent risks involved with digital currencies. Really though, things we’ve heard time and time again. We’re talking anonymity issues, limited identification of participants, and the lack of a central governing authority.
It is, in all actuality, aimed at law enforcement officials with the goal to educate them on these very risks using examples of what has already happened in recent history.
Virtual Currency Key Definitions and Potential Aml Cft Risks
The FATF included the following in their statement:
