In the given paper, the features of the influence of institutional incentives and power tools on the efficiency of decentralization in ensuring prosperity and in the context of economic growth are explored. The purpose of the given paper is to determine the instruments of government and to characterize the methods of using them to promote decentralization, as well as the mechanisms for financing local governments, the decentralization of information and to define their role in the application of market incentives for decentralization. To study the peculiarities of power tools and institutional incentives for decentralization, to determine the conditions for effective work of local government financing mechanisms, the benefits of information decentralization and types of market incentives, a methodology of desk research was used with analysis of the results of theoretical and applied research published in foreign literature. Secondary information has been gathered in the context of the experience of implementing reforms on decentralization of state power, the peculiarities of the institutional environment and the establishment of stimulating factors for increasing the efficiency of state power. Institutional incentives to increase the effectiveness of decentralization have a complex hierarchical structure, and their impact depends on many factors of local culture and management traditions. Decentralization of information and different market incentives may also have different effectiveness in their application. In any case, many changes are needed in the political system. In future studies, it is planned to focus on the peculiarities of decentralization in certain regions of Ukraine and to assess the state of implementation of the proposed mechanisms for funding local governments in specific circumstances.
An article is devoted to the complex problem of the programming budgeting legislation aspects implementation in Ukraine and in the economically developed countries also. In Ukraine during the last two decades special legal documents were accepted in order to use the program-target method in the budgetary process regulation. Some of these documents are mentioned in this article. Taking into account the necessity of the legislation norms in the field of programming budgeting in Ukraine improvement, an international experience in the respective financial law sphere is important as a source of new ideas for the legislation norms in Ukraine further development and harmonization with legislation norms accepted in the economically developed countries also. That is why in this article programming budgeting international practice achievements and faults are analyzed. An attempt to concentrate attention on the respective problematic questions in the budgetary law sphere is undertaken. The characters of the administrative, centralized, model of the programming budgeting, which occur in the countries with the presidential form of govern, and also the contractive, decentralized, model of the programming budgeting, which occur in the countries with the considerable power of the parliament, are described. Attention is focused on the analysis of the accepted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development programming budgeting classification, what includes the performance-oriented budgeting model, and also the performance budgeting models, namely: the presentational performance budgeting; the performance-informed budgeting; the direct performance budgeting. Comparative analysis of these models implementation shows that in order to reach positive result the financial law special acts were accepted in different countries. Taking into account the necessity of the public finance sphere organization improvement, it is reasonable for this purpose to concentrate attention on the performance-informed budgeting legislation development in Ukraine.

Currently, the migration fact of many transport enterprises to the Internet cloud has been noted, where the use of information technology is one of the factors for the active use of enterprise innovative potential, revealing new opportunity to increase revenue, improve efficiency and achieve better results. New concepts and terms have been developed with the emergence of the digital economy. Thus tariffs for transport services of enterprises engaged in international transport are replenished with new content. Introducing information systems, using an intelligent user interface, auto-indexed technological tools, transport companies strengthen their influence on international markets, increase volume of service export. Working with blockchain technology is not a particularly difficult task for transport enterprises. The use of the blockchain-based cryptocurrency mining mechanism to increase revenues encourages transport enterprises to improve their organizational structure, create IT departments, introduce new management methods and personnel remuneration systems without limitation to traditional approaches developed by practical activities. A topical issue in the study of cryptocurrency mining and closely related to the implementation of blockchain technology in the activities of transport enterprises remains the issue of the peculiarities forming the cost of services for an enterprise using blockchain technology. In the near future, artificial intelligence will become an indispensable tool for transport enterprises and service organizations. The rapid development of the digital eco-nomy and information technologies in the activity of transport enterprises will serve as the basis for formation of prerequisites for a transition to the V technological mode and development of market relations based on innovative technologies.
Problem setting. In modern conditions special consideration is attracted to the global discussion related to the nature and unshadowing of cryptocurrencies. One of the most relevant topics for discussion in the cryptocurrency space is the future legal regulation of this sphere and the necessity of tight control of financial institutions in the cryptocurrency trading. Nowadays on the territory of Ukraine the legal regulation of the cryptocurrency sphere remains unresolved, effective legislative changes have not been adopted yet. However, some consensus has already been reached on the territory of the European Union in the field of the legal regulation of cryptocurrencies reformation, which causes unconditional interest for Ukrainian scientists and businesses. Based on the stated above, the purpose of the article is to analyze the legal regulation of cryptocurrency unshadowing in the European Union in order to identify the most effective mechanisms for its adaptation into the domestic legal framework. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Some aspects of the legal regulation of the domestic legislation reformation in the sphere of cryptocurrencies have become the subject of scientific research of such authors as Burkovskaya A. V., Varnavsky A. V., Vasilevskaya L. Yu., Kravchenko L. M., Kud A. A., Kucheryavenko N. P., Lizunova A. N., Lunkin T. I., Perebinis M. G., Smychok E. N., and others. At the same time, comprehensive studies of the European Union legislation innovations in the sphere of the cryptocurrency unshadowing and the impact of the reformed legal EU regulation on national legislation of Ukraine is not carried out, that fact actualizes the theme of the article and further research and development. Article’s main body. European leaders today have reached the consensus on the issue that innovative technologies, which are the basis of cryptocurrencies, have the potential to increase the efficiency of the financial system and the economy as a whole, both at the national level and across the European Union. At the same time, European experts have not yet formed a unified approach to the nature and legal status of virtual currency. Scientists argue that increasingly virtual (fiat) currencies are used to finance terrorism through transaction anonymity, so the European Union introduces additional monitoring of virtual currencies and transactions, legalized in Directive (EU) 2018/843, which was analyzed in the article. Repeated attempts to legalize digital assets in Ukraine were made by the legislator, however, none of the bills has been adopted and so far the only regulatory act that would resolve the issues of the cryptocurrencies’ legalization and effective measures to unshadow them have not been adopted, which, in turn, requires the intensification of the legislators’ activities, given the rapid development of cryptocurrencies and innovations. Conclusions and prospects for development. The study showed multivariate interpretations of the legal text of the Directive (EU) 2018/843 by member-countries, as well as the presence of a hidden control regime that goes beyond the needs of the document. At the same time, the Directive (EU) 2018/843 is intended to become an effective regulator of legal relations in the sphere of cryptocurrencies and requires its gradual implementation in the legislation of Ukraine in order to fulfill the international legal obligations of our state.
The article reveals the economic essence of cryptocurrency as an information and technological innovation. The authors have determined that cryptocurrency is a universal global means of payment, exchange, and investing, which exists in the form of a highly protected software code and is characterized by a free market exchange rate. Having considered technical, technological, and organizational aspects of using cryptocurrencies, the authors carried out the comparison of electronic money and cryptocurrency. The done analysis of markets and types of cryptocurrencies has enabled to form a ranking of cryptocurrencies by level of capitalization. The article describes the dynamics of the growth of cryptocurrency market capitalization and the domination of a Bitcoin’s market share. The authors have ascertained strengths of Bitcoin, which had allowed this cryptocurrency to become a useful international means of payment with the high investment potential. The article examines weaknesses of the exchange of cryptocurrency both ordinary consumers and governments. The authors have proven that institutionalization ensured by the formal and informal establishment of rules for functioning of cryptocurrency is necessary for effective functioning of cryptocurrency. The authors have substantiated three positions of institutional support describing the attitude of countries to functioning of a cryptocurrency market: a loyal position, categorical position, and position of anticipation. The authors have developed an organizational and economic mechanism for forming a cryptocurrency market based on functions, methods, and tools of management and suggested directions for undertaking a policy in the sphere of functioning of a cryptocurrency market for countries with the position of anticipation. The process of virtualization of modern society is inevitable. Сountries with the position of anticipation should support the course on innovation by solving a range of regulatory, technical and information issues on the development of the cryptocurrency market, based on leading international experience. The primary tasks should be: granting the legal status of cryptocurrency and developing rules for its circulation, introduction of technological innovations with the participation of the state, large corporations and venture funds, creation of an open ecosystem for interaction of all participants, as well as wide information support at all levels.
This paper substantiates the selection of the most effective new economic and organizational tools, approaches and methods for national enterprises and regions of the mining industry that the Fourth industrial revolution offers. To this end, the role of the mining industry in the world in new conditions, its significance for Ukrainian economy and regions, areas, specializing in this field, are identified. A set of measures, which are based on the analysis of digital tools used by mining enterprises of the world, as well as on the study of the experience of applying advanced approaches and methods, have been offered for the development of the Ukrainian mining industry in conditions of the Fourth industrial revolution. This complex consists of proposals for enterprises of a technological and organizational feature, suggestions for government authorities, including of fiscal and monetary measures, and proposals for smart specialization in the Dnipropetrovsk region. It was defined that the most effective technologies for national enterprises are disruptive ones that ensure the creation of new equipment components and mechanisms, their smart technical maintenance, optimization of production process control, monitoring of health status and quality of safety. At the level of state authorities, it is advisable to introduce tax investment incentives, use traditional and alternative sources of financing, adhere federalism principles with respect to natural resources and fiscal decentralization, improve relations between mining enterprises and local jurisdictions using the capabilities of social ratings. At the regional level, it is proposed to build a regional industrial policy, based on conceptual foundations of smart specialization with the creation of a favourable market environment in the region through the use of soft fiscal and financial regulation tools, governmental R&D programs, and enabling conditions for the innovative development of the mining sector of the economy and its integration with other sectors.
Money is a widely accepted commodity, which enables us to determine the economic value of purchased goods and services and make payments. The dynamic development of technology and social expectations has expanded the spectrum of available types of payment instruments, including e-money and cryptocurrencies. Among dematerialized means of payment, cryptocurrencies began to play an important role due to their independence from central financial institutions and a highly effective form of saving money. The paper aims to present legal authorization, referring to cryptocurrencies, in countries of the European Union and prove that bitcoin is a high-riskу financial instrument. The methodology of the study was based on the review of available legal acts and literature (regarding the nature and function of money) and Value at Risk (VaR) model on the example of risk assessment of cryptocurrencies with respect to investing in the selected currencies. The outcomes showed several discrepancies in the definition of cryptocurrencies. They indicated that bitcoin, as one of the best-known cryptocurrencies, does not fulfill the functions of money formulated in economic theory (in relation to e-money). Besides, cryptocurrencies have been shown to be high-risky instruments.

The article is devoted to the analysis of transformation of economic relations due to the emergence of such phenomenon as cryptocurrency. It is substantiated that its appearance is connected with the development of the information society, the formation of the virtual economy and the spread of digitization processes in all spheres of economic activity. It is proved that despite the innovative nature of the revolutionary character and the considerable potential for stimulating radical changes in the sphere of economic relations and economic model of modern society, the cryptocurrency is a confirmation of the evolution of money. From the point of view of the theory of money, the ability of cryptocurrency to perform the functions of money (measures of value, means of payment and medium of exchange, accumulation, world money), as well as new specific functions — social, regulatory, indicative and others, — have been proved.
 Analysis of the practice of cryptocurrencies spread gave the opportunity to reveal their characteristic features on grounds of the format of money, unit of account, legal status, money creation, stability of payment, mechanism of exchange, regulation and supervision, risks, etc. In addition, the positive properties of cryptocurrencies and their possible negative effects are identified.
 It is emphasized that the adoption and active spread of cryptocurrencies leads to the transformation of economic relations, and more precisely, the objective formation of a new system of economic relations as a compensator of the negative manifestations of a modern economic society, which, at the same time, has exacerbated to some extent the threats to the traditional monetary system. This is confirmed by the tendencies of the development of the cryptocurrency market, changes in the position of the central banks of the countries of the world from rigid rejection to the development of national cryptocurrencies, including in Ukraine.
 The problematic aspects of determining the legal status of cryptocurrencies in the regulation of cryptocurrency in Ukraine from the point of view of civil-law relations and relatively criminal-law context have been identified. It is concluded that it is necessary to determine the legal status of cryptocurrency in Ukraine, taking into account the position of the leading countries of the world.

This article explores the potential of using cryptocurrency as universal currency in the conditions of transition of the global economic system towards sixth technological paradigm. The goal of this research consists in analysis of the patterns of co-evolution of the global financial system, technological system, and global economy. Based on the historical material, the author demonstrates how shift in technological paradigms is accompanied by financial crises, and result in the changes of the world financial system. Over the course of time, the gold served as the universal currency, but the advancement of technologies demanded the transition towards more flexible forms of world currency based on the national currencies of most industrialized countries. Currently, the transition to the technology of the sixth technological paradigm is followed by the global financial crisis. The U.S. dollar is not handling the functions imposed by the latest technologies upon monetary systems. The conclusion is made that finite currencies are being replaced by an innovative generation of monetary systems that are based on cryptocurrency. The authors systematize the innovation forms of investment, accounting, keeping and saving of funds, which are based on cryptocurrency and blockchain. It is demonstrated that innovation financial instruments, including different types of cryptocurrency, tokens, smart contracts, and cryptocurrency exchanges, open new opportunities for effective investment in the technologies of sixth technological paradigm. The results of research can be valuable for the government branches in establishment of the policy for usage of cryptocurrency and blockchain for entrepreneurs dealing with developments in the area of practical implementation of cryptocurrency as innovative currency.
Digital transformation affects almost all areas of government management, including public procurement. World experience shows that the procurement sector acts as a driver of digital transformation of corporations. According to the authors, digitalization of public procurement should not be an end in itself, a balanced approach is needed to make the contract system more open, accountable to citizens, convenient for business, cost-effective and anti-corruption. Currently, there have been significant changes in the public procurement system in the direction of its electronicization, electronic platforms, electronic stores for small purchases have appeared, all competitive procurement methods have switched to electronic format. The next stage in the development of the contract system is digitalization due to the transition to smart technologies, including blockchain, smart contracts, cloud services, artificial intelligence, bigdata. The purpose of this article is to show how digital technologies, including those successfully used in corporate procurement, will help move to state “procurement 4.0” and lead to the formation of an intellectual contract system, including eliminating the influence of the subjective “human” factor as much as possible, by transferring the collateral function making managerial decisions to artificial intelligence.

Introduction. The urgency of the problem of decentralization of power in Ukraine is caused by a number of legal, political and economic problems that need to be solved in the state in the current difficult conditions of its development. The heated discussions on changes to the legislation of Ukraine, including its Basic Law – the Constitution of Ukraine, primarily relate to the redistribution of powers between state authorities and local self-government bodies, determination and consolidation in the legislation of the optimal model of organization of power in Ukraine on the basis of its decentralization. The aim of the article. To analyze actual legal and theoretical problems of financial activity of local self-government bodies in the conditions of decentralization of power in Ukraine. Results. The article is devoted to the analysis of current legal and theoretical problems related to the process of decentralization of power in Ukraine. The peculiarities of legal regulation of financial activity of local self-government bodies, in particular the budgetary sphere, under conditions of decentralization of power are considered. The scientific analysis of some theoretical issues is carried out, the solution of which is connected with the improvement of the legislation of Ukraine, which regulates the specified sphere of relations. At the present stage, the legal regulation of the financial activity of local governments largely determines the effectiveness of their activity as a whole and the efficiency of the process of decentralization of power in Ukraine. And it must solve one of the main tasks – to ensure the optimal combination of the realization of the interests of the population of a particular territory and national interests. Decentralization of power, creation of united territorial communities relied on strengthening the financial base of local governments during 2014–2018. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to reduce local budgets subsidies for 2020, as this will hinder budgetary decentralization in Ukraine. The process of budgetary decentralization should include the liberalization and improvement of intergovernmental budgetary relations, taking into account the quantitative and qualitative indicators of the respective territory. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the terms “region” and “regional self-government”. Conclusions. Considering the term “region” as a complex structural entity, regional self-government can be considered as self-organization of citizens within a specific territorial sociality, economic structure with its characteristic functions. Equally important is ensuring a change in fiscal discipline in the context of strengthening the financial framework of local self-government in the process of decentralization of power. In today's context, the social focus of local budgets is also of particular importance. The role of reserve funds, which must necessarily be formed at the local level, to finance unforeseen measures, which must be secured at the legislative level, is growing.
Central banks are flocking to government-backed cryptocurrency, taking full advantage of the media attention brought to Bitcoin and other digital currency. However, while government-backed cryptocurrency avoids some pitfalls presented by private cryptocurrencies, other problems are less easily sidestepped. And government-backed cryptocurrencies, if widely adopted, could present issues to the stability of the international monetary system. These problems must be addressed, and not only as they arise. Unfortunately, national and international governments have shown no real ability to deal with troubles arising from private cryptocurrency. The government-backing of such digital currency changes the calculus, permitting a new entity to deal with these problems. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the best organization to deal with the issues. This Note submits that the IMF should act quickly to take pre-emptive measures and develop a system of best practices for dealing with government-backed cryptocurrency in pursuance of ensuring a stable international monetary system.
In the course of its economic and legal development, the formation and improvement of the financial system from a legal perspective continues to occur in Ukraine. Today, political transformations in one aspect or another affect the state of the financial system, that is, in some cases, they stabilize it, and in others, unfortunately, lead to its imbalance. At the same time, it should be noted that the financial system of Ukraine, as well as its functions in modern conditions, usually develop in close interaction with other links. Their interaction with the budget system is especially important for the functioning of the financial system itself since it contributes to the financial support of various branches of public life in Ukraine. At the same time, the axiology of the financial system of Ukraine requires analysis of its functional component, since in the legal and economic literature the specified category is still debatable. In addition, the concept of “financial system” is absent both in scientific sources and in the current legislation. The problems of the financial system have already been the subject of research by individual scholars. However, an analysis of their work shows that the administrative and legal aspects of the financial system are only partially revealed. That is why the purpose of this article is to analyze the very concept of the financial system and its components, as well as to study the impact on it of the relevant administrative and legal principles. As a result, it is concluded that finance, as well as the financial system as a whole, is crucial for the development of the state. They serve as the economic basis for the existence of even the state itself. The notion of “finance” is applied not only to the sphere of state property but also to the sphere of the effect of private relations, because in Ukraine the market relations develop. In this regard, finance is regarded as a public-law and private-law category, which is the very foundation of Ukraine’s financial system. Nowadays in Ukraine, there is a tendency of scientific research of peculiarities of legal regulation of a certain type of activity, including financial, because the latter has state-defined elements. Given that the main elements of the financial system include finance: state, local, economic entities of all forms of ownership, the non-productive sphere of activity, the population of the financial market, as well as financial infrastructure, it is possible to improve the definition of the content of the financial system as a set regulated by financial and legal norms individual units of financial relations and financial institutions through which the state creates, distributes and uses centralized and decentralized funds. This definition directly indicates that there is a specific model of legal influence created by a special combination of legal regulation of financial relations in Ukraine. The aforementioned allows convincingly to assert that in Ukraine there is an administrative-legal regime of the financial system, which is functionally oriented to the performance of functions and actions of the authorized state bodies in the implementation and provision of all elements of the financial system. Keywords: administrative and legal principles of the financial system, financial system, finances, money.
Introduction. In the context of reforming the system of local self-government and territorial organization of power, they need to rethink a number of important theoretical postulates of domestic financial science through the prism of improving existing and developing new conceptual approaches to the theoretical substantiation of the finances of the united territorial communities in their territorial communities. After all, the study of OTG finances, with their permanent dominance in local finance, is the basis for effective implementation of the reform of financial decentralization and local development. Moreover, upon completion of the reform, the UGT finances will prevail, completely changing the local finances. Purpose. Given the limited theoretical and practical experience of domestic scientists on the finances of the united territorial communities, the purpose of the article is to find out the place and role of OGF finances in the financial system of the state. Methods. The methods of abstraction, generalization, induction, deduction, synthesis were applied in the study of the role and place of OGF finances in the financial system of the state, as well as the system method. Results. The views of domestic and foreign theorists and practitioners on the scientific substantiation of the financial system of the state and its structural components have been systematized. The LTG finances in its structure and the role for modifications of local finances was determined. This made it possible to identify OTG finances as an area of the financial system and to formulate a science-based approach to their knowledge, while separating OTG budgets, utility and financial institutions and local borrowing in their structure. Discussion. It is advisable to carry out further scientific researches of OGF finances on the basis of the formed theoretical substantiation of OGF finances as an integral part of the financial system of the state with the corresponding structural structure – links that are interconnected and interact.
