Chilean Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of crypto exchange Orionx, resolving that the state-owned bank Banco Estado should reopen the company’s deposit account, local news outlet La Tercera reported July 12.
The Fourth Chamber of the Court of Appeals of Santiago has accepted the appeal filed by Orionx crypto exchange against Banco Estado, which closed the company’s deposit account in late March.
At that time, the bank cited the lack of “regulatory recognition of [cryptocurrency trading]” as justification for its decision.
Now, by the ruling of the Court of Appeals, Banco Estado has been ordered to reopen the deposit account of Orionx.
In May, the president of Central Bank of Chile Mario Marcel announced that they are considering the development of a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies, in order to better manage the risks associated with crypto trading.
