N2 - The comprehension of the ethical perspectives of digital economy is an urgent problem of modern humanities, since the rapid spread of digitalization process in technologically developed countries does not allow integral philosophical consideration of it. Digital technologies integrate very quickly in almost all areas of public life. Ethical problems arising in new socio-economic circumstances require close attention in the context of humanities. The importance of the study of this aspect of economic relations is undeniable. The process of digital globalization is broad and holistic. Everyone in the modern world is somehow involved in the development of digital economy. It is impossible to imagine the economic activity of a modern person without Internet commerce, cryptocurrencies, electronic banking, etc. The advantages of the use of digital technologies in economy are the increased speed of operations, the convenience of using information and communication innovations, the expansion of the necessary content, and the ability to use fundamentally new forms of economic relations. Along with the undeniable benefits, the process of digitalization of economy contains obvious and hidden dangers that participants in economic interaction may face. Any person has the right to know what worldview problems he may face in new economic relations. A philosophical analysis of the ethical problems of modern economics, based on the continuity of historical cognitive experience, should become a part of digital culture. Such knowledge will help each of the participants of economic process to be ready to make important responsible decisions in new reality.
