Методы: диалектический подход к познанию социальных явлений, позволяющий проанализировать их в историческом развитии и функционировании в контексте совокупности объективных и субъективных факторов, который определил выбор следующих методов исследования: формально-логический, сравнительно-правовой, социологический. Результаты: в работе обосновано, что майнинг представляет собой новую сложную экономико-правовую технологию и одновременно новый вид человеческой активности в экономической сфере, который не является предпринимательской деятельностью. В связи с этим представляется, что майнинг не должен подлежать налогообложению, не предполагает специализированное государственно-правовое регулирование (лицензирование, контроль и т. п.), не может рассматриваться при отсутствии регистрации как незаконное предпринимательство и не влечет иных негативных последствий от осуществления таких действий.Научная новизна: впервые в научной литературе рассмотрено определение понятия «майнинг» с учетом двух его основных составляющих: информационной и юридической. В отличие от определения понятия «майнинг», сформулированного в проекте Федерального закона «О цифровых финансовых активах», упоминание о потреблении электроэнергии было исключено, поскольку в действительности существуют иные виды майнинга, которые проблематично поддаются детекции по стабильно высокому уровню потребления энергии в расчете на систему.Практическая значимость: основные положения и выводы статьи могут быть использованы в научной, педагогической и правотворческой деятельности при рассмотрении вопросов, связанных с правовым регулированием майнинга.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Objective: to formulate the notion of mining, to define its essence, properties, types and features.Methods: dialectical approach to the cognition of social phenomena, enabling to analyze them in their historical development and functioning in the context of a set of objective and subjective factors, which determined the choice of the following research methods: formal-logical, comparative-legal, sociological.Results: it is substantiated that mining is a new complex economic-legal technology and, at the same time, a new type of human economic activity, which does not belong to entrepreneurial activities. Therefore, it is stated that mining should not be subject to taxation, it does not imply specialized state-legal regulation (licensing, control, etc.), cannot be regarded as illegal business activity in the absence of registration, and does not entail any other negative consequences. Scientific novelty: the definition of mining is viewed for the first time in the scientific literature, taking into account its two main components: informational and legal. In contrast to the definition of mining given in the draft Federal Law “On digital financial assets”, the reference to electricity consumption was removed, as there are other types of mining that are difficult to detect by a steadily high level of energy consumption in the system.Practical significance: the main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in scientific, pedagogical and law-making activities in the consideration of issues related to the legal regulation of mining.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>экономика и управление народным хозяйством</kwd><kwd>майнинг</kwd><kwd>цифровые финансовые активы</kwd><kwd>криптовалюта</kwd><kwd>блокчейн</kwd><kwd>биткойн</kwd><kwd>валюта</kwd><kwd>детекция</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Anderson D.
