Resumen
La presente investigación abordó la necesidad de regular las criptomonedas en el ordenamiento jurídico peruano, considerando su creciente uso, así como su implicancia en el blanqueo de capitales y el fraude informático. Actualmente, estos activos digitales se utilizan cada vez con mayor frecuencia, pese a que en el Perú aún no existe una normativa clara que brinde seguridad jurídica y controle su uso adecuado. Para ello, se empleó un enfoque cualitativo con paradigma interpretativo, basado en un análisis documental de fuentes legales y doctrinarias tanto a nivel nacional como internacional, enfocándose especialmente en legislaciones de países como El Salvador, Japón y México, con el fin de contrastar sus avances normativos con la realidad jurídica peruana. Los resultados evidencian que la falta de regulación en nuestro ordenamiento ha generado un escenario propicio para actividades ilícitas, debido a características propias de las criptomonedas como el anonimato, la descentralización y la dificultad para rastrear las transacciones. Por lo tanto, se evidencia que contar con una regulación adecuada no solo fortalecería el sistema financiero peruano, sino que también ofrece mayor protección a los usuarios, reduce el riesgo ante delitos informáticos y promovería un entorno digital más seguro y confiable.
This research addressed the need to regulate cryptocurrencies in the Peruvian legal system, considering their growing use, as well as their involvement in money laundering and computer fraud. Currently, these digital assets are being used with increasing frequency, despite the fact that in Peru there isstill no clear regulation that provideslegal certainty and controlstheir proper use. For this purpose, a qualitative approach with an interpretative paradigm was used, based on a documentary analysis of legal and doctrinal sources both at national and international level, focusing especially on the legislation of countries such as El Salvador, Japan and Mexico, in order to contrast their regulatory advances with the Peruvian legal reality. The results show that the lack of regulation in our legal system has generated a favorable scenario for illicit activities, due to the characteristics of cryptocurrencies such as anonymity, decentralization and the difficulty to trace transactions. Therefore, it is evident that adequate regulation would not only strengthen the Peruvian financial system, but also offer greater protection to users, reduce the risk of cybercrime and promote a safer and more reliable digital environment.
