The Group of Twenty (G20) is an international forum that brings together the world’s 20 leading economies. The G20 was established in 1999, back then it was a meeting aimed to get together the finance ministers and central bankers aimed to discuss international coordination of economic policy. They discussed really important matters year by year such as the financial crisis of 2007-2010, the housing bubble of the US or the Crimean crisis between Russia and Ukraine.

Their next meeting is scheduled for next week, taking place is Buenos Aires, Argentina. And according to a freshly released public document, this year cryptocurrencies are on their agenda as well, showing us what importance this industry holds.

Reuters reports that the G20 financial leaders are usually focusing on a multilateral responses to anything that could threaten international financial stability and of course cryptocurrencies and their trading platforms are included now. Another important point on their agenda is the technological innovation that is the driving force behind some of these digital assets.

The full agenda and talking points have not been released yet, however since finance officials from the US, Germany France and Japan collectively called for the discussion of cryptocurrencies long before the meeting, we expect that a debate is going to result in new regulatory proposals and that will surely effect Bitcoin’s currently already volatile price.

The meetings will be held during March and April and the calendar can be viewed on their website.
