13. Hunan court rules that repayment of loans with virtual currency is invalid, emphasizing that virtual currency has no legal status.
The People's Court of Xiangyin County, Hunan Province, heard a civil lending dispute involving the repayment of loans with virtual currency. The defendants, a couple named Wang and Zhang, borrowed 10,000 yuan from the plaintiff Zhou in July 2020 (Zhang did not acknowledge this), and in May 2022, they jointly borrowed 50,000 yuan. Zhang later repaid 40,000 yuan, while Wang used virtual currency to repay the remaining 20,000 yuan through the now-defunct "TR foreign currency platform," which had been shut down by public security authorities. Zhou did not accept this repayment method and took the matter to court. The court pointed out, based on the "Notice on Further Preventing and Handling Risks of Virtual Currency Trading Speculation," that virtual currency has no legal status and cannot be circulated or used, rendering Wang's debt repayment invalid, and he must continue to repay the loan. Ultimately, the court ruled that Wang must repay 10,000 yuan in principal and interest, and Wang and Zhang must jointly repay another 10,000 yuan in principal and interest. Both parties accepted the ruling, which has now taken effect. This case indicates that virtual currency cannot be used as an effective means of debt repayment. -Original
