Problems and prospects of unification of the concepts of “tokens”, “digital assets” and “digital rights”

Introduction: the accelerated digital transformation of the economy leads to a lack of unity in understanding the essence of new digital objects and a lag in the legal regulation from the pace of digitalization. As a result, when characterizing new digital objects, there arise terminological inaccuracies, discussions regarding the expediency and correctness of legislative innovations, and the gaps in the legal regulation of digital objects of legal relations. As a result, the purpose of the current study is to define the essence and delineate the concepts of “token”, “digital assets” and “digital rights”. To achieve this goal, the following tasks are defined: to study the definitions of the above-mentioned concepts available in the legal doctrine, their role in the civil legislation, to develop a systematic understanding of the digital objects selected for research.
