The discussion focused on an initial analysis of the risks associated with defi and the possible avenues for regulation. The consultation paper allowed the French regulator to consolidate and improve their understanding of the main defi mechanisms.
Some of the key points brought by the consultation paper were to lay down measures relating to the reliability of the blockchain infrastructures on which defi or other tokenized finance may develop. It is set to draw up rules for certification suited to the nature and functioning of smart contracts and to define governance and conduct of business rules to ensure adequate protection of defi customers.

In recent years, France has made significant strides in decentralized finance. Defi refers to the use of blockchain technology and smart contracts to create financial applications that are open, transparent, and accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
The French government has shown a positive attitude towards the cryptocurrency industry and has implemented various incentives and regulations to foster its growth.

The government eliminated taxes on crypto-crypto transactions, making it more appealing for individuals and businesses to engage in cryptocurrency activities. However, taxation still applies to digital assets converted to fiat currency.
