Tech News: Switzerland to Relax Laws for Blockchain and Crypto Startups

The Swiss government has announced a new legislative approach to blockchain regulation in an official report. The document recognizes the technology as one of the most important recent developments for the financial sector in stimulating the country’s economy.

A Swiss Innovation Paradise
According to the report, the Swiss Federal Council’s main focus is on “ensuring the integrity and reputation of Switzerland as a financial center” and on better positioning the country to “exploit the opportunities offered by digitalization.”

The government’s plan is to create the best possible legal framework conditions so the country can continue to evolve as a leading and sustainable destination for fintech, blockchain, and innovative companies in a number of fields.

Although the report discusses the risk of cryptocurrencies being used for illegal purposes like the financing of terrorism, it maintains a positive attitude towards the technology, noting that the country’s laws should be amended to recognize encrypted digital tokens that are not backed by any physical assets. The Federal Council also made clear that it wants decentralized financial transactions to have a place in the legal code.


A Lighter Touch
Switzerland to Relax Laws to Accommodate Blockchain and Cryptocurrency StartupsThe report mentions a proposal to give discretionary powers to the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) to loosen regulations affecting decentralized securities trading platforms as long as their activities do not harm investors. This regulatory approach circumvents current legislation enacted so as to be aligned with the EU’s position on the subject.

Swiss economist Luzius Meisser expressed his belief that this approach to legislation could prove much more effective in a written statement, saying:

This shows once again how the traditional Swiss approach of having principle-based laws that give a lot of discretion to citizens and regulatory agencies are much more innovation-friendly than overly detailed European-style laws.


Switzerland has decided to achieve these objectives without creating a slew of new laws, opting instead to adapt current legislation to incorporate new technological developments. Mattia Rattaggi, spokesman for regulatory matters at the Crypto Valley Association (CVA), commented on the association’s stance on these announcements:

We feel that this approach best represents the principle of technological neutrality and is in line with the position taken by the CVA in the consultation process … Crucially, this approach ensures maximum consistency within the current legal framework while keeping it principle-based and flexible, while allowing changes to be adopted on a ‘need-to-regulate’ basis.



Proposed Changes
Switzerland’s Federal Council’s report outlines several modifications to the country’s laws but clarifies that there are no intentions to immediately change financial or insurance industry-related laws, as it considers that blockchain technology is still “in its infancy” when it comes to these sectors. The most important legislative changes proposed so far include:

Amending the Collective Investment Schemes Act to include a new type of “limited qualified investment funds” with the intention of placing future innovative products on the market in a more time and cost-effective way.
Start recognizing data as an asset by changing company bankruptcy laws. This would allow Swiss courts to handle and properly distribute digital assets when solving legal disputes.
Widen the Anti-Money Laundering Act to include decentralized exchanges and allow law enforcement to dispose of third-party digital assets.
Creating new authorization categories to give FINMA discretion to loosen regulations for decentralized securities traders and exchanges based in Switzerland.
Amending the Financial Institutions Act and the Financial Market Infrastructure Law to make them more flexible towards blockchain initiatives.

Migu Joins Hands with Shanghai Mobile and Huawei to Complete the World's First Real 4K UHD Live Broadcasting Through 5G Network Slicing

Migu Joins Hands with Shanghai Mobile and Huawei to Complete the World's First Real 4K UHD Live Broadcasting Through 5G Network Slicing

[Shanghai, China, December 10, 2018] On December 8, the 12th Migu Music Awards were held at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai. Jay (Zhou Jielun), A Mei (Zhang Huimei), G.E.M. (Deng Ziqi), and other famous Chinese music artists took to the stage. With the collaboration of Migu, China Mobile (Shanghai), and Huawei, this music ceremony successfully implemented the first application of 5G network slicing in global large-scale live broadcasting.

Delivering a Real 4K UHD Experience

The real 4K UHD video has a resolution of 3840 x 2160 and a frame rate of 50 fps. 4K UHD images are smoother, more lifelike and more naturally deliver an in-person immersive experience to audiences. Such video transmission requires a high bandwidth and low latency. The transmission rate of 5G networks can reach 10-100 times that of 4G networks, to achieve smooth 4K mobile live broadcasting.

Migu's live broadcasting team director said that, "We have implemented E2E 5G+4K live broadcasting for this ceremony, including 4K filming, 4K transcoding, and 4K video streaming over 5G." When the ceremony started, 4K video cameras at the red carpet, main stage, and other locations, uploaded and sent UHD live signals to the Migu videoconferencing cloud data center for production and distribution through a 5G network slice established by Shanghai Mobile and Huawei. At the same time, the first application of 4K live broadcasting was achieved through this E2E network slice. Footage was streamed to an onsite 4K screen to showcase the award ceremony.

Building Dedicated Channels for Live Broadcasting

This live broadcasting uses Huawei's industry-leading E2E 5G network slicing solution, which enables carriers to slice a network into multiple virtual E2E networks on the same hardware infrastructure. Each slice logically isolates the terminals, radio access network (RAN), transport network (TN), and core network (CN) from end to end, to meet the differing requirements of industries in various service scenarios. Taking this ceremony as an example. Shanghai Mobile and Huawei set up 5G network infrastructure and are providing slice services to build dedicated channels that feature ultra-high bandwidths and ultra-low latency: a guaranteed experience for 4K UHD video playback.

5G network slicing has changed the 'one network, best effort' business model of the conventional 3G/4G network. It provides separate logical networks for different industries to meet their requirements in various service scenarios, helping carriers apply 5G networks to these industries. 5G network slicing has successfully verified its use for smart grids, smart ports, and mobile games. It will provide on-demand connection capabilities for various application scenarios.

Qiu Xuefeng, president of Huawei 5G Core, said: "5G will create new industries on an unprecedented scale. As the combining point of network and business, core network will face a radical change of services. Huawei's 5G core network solution can implement on-demand network definition, quick deployment, automated operations, E2E SLA assurance, and capability exposure. Through this collaboration, the E2E technology and service verification of 5G network is carried out in real multimedia business scenario for the first time. This will accelerate the maturity of related technologies and solutions."

Continuously exploring 5G+multimedia application innovation

In 2017, Migu joined hands with China Mobile Research Institute, Huawei, mainstream media, and various universities to set up the 5G Multimedia Innovation Alliance (5MII). This alliance is aiming to innovate multimedia technologies based on 5G mobile networks and formulate relevant standards. Seizing the opportunity provided by this music ceremony, Migu will establish a long-term cooperation with China Mobile and Huawei to continuously explore application innovation in 5G+multimedia, and convert resulting achievements into industry consensus through platforms such as 5MII and 5G Slicing Association (5GSA). This should promote the development of the 5G+multimedia industry.

A representative of Shanghai Mobile said, "The usage of 5G network in various application scenarios will create great changes. China Mobile hopes to implement the concept of 'slicing as a service' to meet the requirements of different application scenarios, and achieve convergence and innovation in industry applications and 5G networks. ”
