If Ukraine had no laws on the books regarding cryptocurrency and didn't define it either as an asset or a currency, I can see why some people would refer to their recent pronouncement as "legalization", but for journalists to do so is absurd.  The only way something gets legalized is if it was illegal to start with--and OP, I'm sure you know that, but some folks reading this thread might not understand the distinction if there's a language/knowledge barrier.

People making multiple threads on the forum about this "legalization" are just parroting other people's posts or articles, IMO, and not thinking about what the words really mean.  That sort of thing drives me nuts; it's like when everyone was saying "When altcoin season?" in 2019-20.  That phrase has absolutely no meaning outside of a very small group of people, and I doubt even they could define it, and yet they kept using it over and over in posts in Altcoin Discussion.

But in the end, what can you do about it aside from creating a thread like this?  I'm glad you did, because you're setting the record straight for those who couldn't see the distinction--and personally, I didn't know what the status of crypto was in Ukraine, so I learned something from it.  Thanks for that.
