Abstract
This article analyzes some points related to the use of cryptographic means of payment for criminal activities. The modern financial and legal system, even at the international level, has not conceptually defined the category of digital currency. This phenomenon, which is new both from a technological and legal point of view, is actively being integrated into the modern social system. And as often happens, it is the criminals who react most quickly to such innovations, using them for the purposes of their criminal activities. The conclusion is substantiated that it is necessary to create a clear criminal legal framework, and to introduce specific qualifying features into the already existing compositions of criminally punishable acts, aggravating punishment for the use of cryptographic means of payment in illegal activities.
