Abstract
The purpose of the work is to consider the use of digital currency technology in order to attract the attention
of the scientific and expert community to the risks and opportunities associated with this new phenomenon.
Materials and methods. The research uses the methodology of process analysis, tools for interpreting
functional dependencies, techniques, and methods of comparison.
Results. The article assumes that the development of the digital economy of territories, as well as the
introduction of digital technologies, is inherently linked to the formation of modern payment assets. One of such tools in the formation of the digital economy for the development of territories, as noted in the article,
should consider the technology of digital currency. The study also emphasizes that the development of digital
currency technology includes a two-phase economic nature for the development of territories. At the same
time, the first one has an obvious characteristic associated with transactional and price risks in the economy
when using it. However, the second suggests that this is an opportunity to achieve an accelerated breakthrough
in the digital economy for the development of territories.
Conclusion. The results of the presented research contribute to the development of the theory and practice
of the digital economy and digital transformation of territories.
