Could you please clarify the legal status of cryptocurrencies in Norway? I'm interested in understanding if they are recognized and regulated by the government or if there are any specific laws governing their use and trade. Additionally, are there any tax implications for individuals or businesses involved in cryptocurrency transactions? It's important for me to have a clear understanding of the legal framework surrounding cryptocurrencies in Norway before making any investments or engaging in related activities. Thank you for your assistance. Are cryptocurrencies legal in Norway?
