“The National Bank of Belgium doesn’t have any plans to regulate bitcoin further, according to the Belgian Bitcoin Association. Belgium’s central bank met with the Association to discuss the digital currency last Monday, describing the meeting as ‘informal’. Thomas Spaas, a board member who represented the Belgian Bitcoin Association at the meeting, said that although the meeting was informal and did not reflect the central bank’s official position, he expected Belgium to adopt a similar position to France, the Netherlands and Germany, where bitcoin is considered to be beyond the scope of current regulations.”
