Cryptocurrency
Lunchtime Series 21 June, 2024
Hon Justice Ian Jackman, Federal Court of Australia; Sarah Hill, 4 Selborne Chambers (Chair)
Dixson Room, Mitchell Wing, NSW State Library
01:00PM to 02:00PM
Cryptocurrency has now been recognised as a kind of property in various common law jurisdictions,
although the issue has not yet arisen in substantive proceedings in Australia,
and much of the reasoning and commentary as to the particular nature of the property is open to question.
This seminar will examine that reasoning and will seek to demonstrate that longstanding High Court
authority on the concept of 'property' should yield a clear answer in favour of the view
that cryptocurrency is property, and as to the nature of that property.
