Strongly agree

No, classify cryptocurrencies as highly regulated securities

Classifying cryptocurrencies as highly regulated securities is in line with the PES's approach to financial regulation and consumer protection. This stance allows for the innovation and use of cryptocurrencies but under strict regulatory oversight to prevent abuse and protect the economy and consumers.

Agree

No, but the government should create an official digital currency

The PES might find the idea of a government creating an official digital currency appealing as it aligns with their preference for regulated and state-controlled financial mechanisms. This approach could offer the benefits of digital currency while ensuring stability, transparency, and consumer protection.

Agree

No

Given their inclination towards regulation and consumer protection, the PES might agree with not classifying cryptocurrencies as legal forms of payment due to concerns over financial stability, consumer protection, and potential for illicit use. However, they might not be completely opposed to cryptocurrencies if proper regulations are established.

Neutral

Yes, but only for cryptocurrencies that hold stable value without price fluctuation

While the PES might see the value in cryptocurrencies that hold a stable value without price fluctuation for reducing transaction costs and increasing efficiency, they would likely remain cautious. Their support would be conditional on the implementation of regulatory frameworks to address potential risks and ensure consumer protection.

Disagree

Yes

The Party of European Socialists (PES), being a center-left political group, generally supports regulation to protect consumers and the economy. They are likely to view cryptocurrencies with caution due to their volatility and the potential for misuse. Therefore, they might not fully support classifying cryptocurrencies as legal forms of payment without significant regulatory frameworks in place.

Strongly disagree

No, classify cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities

Classifying cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities would likely be contrary to the PES's principles of regulation and oversight to ensure financial stability and consumer protection. They would probably oppose this approach due to the lack of safeguards against volatility, fraud, and other risks.
