Essentially, it said, the draft regulation would prohibit digital asset business operators from: accepting deposits of digital assets from the customers and lending, investing, staking, or employing such digital assets; accepting deposits of digital assets from the customers and paying them regular interests or other types of benefits from their own source of fund unless those activities are in accordance with the sale promotion rules; and advertising, persuading, or acting in any other manners to support the deposit taking and lending services of other service providers.</li></ul><h2 id="header-3">Blockchain news</h2><ul><li><strong>Calypso Pay</strong>, the crypto processing and acquiring platform of <strong>Calypso Group</strong>, announced the launch of its own <a href="https://cryptonews.com/tags/blockchain/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">blockchain</a> and the first significant update of its platform.
