Scottish Socialists answer is based on the following data:
Agree
No, but the government should create an official digital currency
The SSP's advocacy for public ownership and the creation of economic structures that serve the public good could make the idea of a government-created digital currency appealing. Such a currency could potentially offer the benefits of digital finance while under public oversight, aligning with the party's principles of economic justice and public control over essential services.

Agree
No
Given the SSP's focus on economic justice and regulation of financial markets to protect consumers and the economy, they might be hesitant to fully endorse cryptocurrencies, which are known for their volatility and the regulatory challenges they pose. However, outright rejection without consideration of potential benefits or regulatory frameworks might not align with their approach to innovative financial technologies.

Slightly agree
No, classify cryptocurrencies as highly regulated securities
While the SSP is likely to support the regulation of financial markets, including cryptocurrencies, to protect consumers and the economy, classifying cryptocurrencies strictly as securities might not fully align with their broader economic and social policies. The party might prefer a more nuanced approach that considers the potential benefits of cryptocurrencies alongside the need for regulation.

Neutral
Yes, but only for cryptocurrencies that hold stable value without price fluctuation
The SSP might see some merit in allowing cryptocurrencies that hold stable value as they could potentially offer a more stable and equitable form of digital currency. However, the party's overall cautious stance towards speculative financial instruments and its emphasis on regulation and public oversight might temper their support, leading to a neutral position.

Disagree
Yes
The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) emphasizes social equality, public ownership, and the redistribution of wealth, values that may conflict with the largely unregulated and speculative nature of cryptocurrencies. While the SSP supports innovation in finance, the party's commitment to economic justice and skepticism towards speculative financial instruments likely makes them cautious about fully embracing cryptocurrencies as legal payment without significant regulation.

Strongly disagree
No, classify cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities
Classifying cryptocurrencies as unregulated commodities would likely be at odds with the SSP's principles, given their emphasis on regulating financial markets to prevent speculation, protect consumers, and ensure economic stability. The party's commitment to social justice and economic equality suggests a preference for stronger, not weaker, regulation of new financial instruments.
