As has been stated already - ASTM says 300 fps.

there may be some laws about paint calibers. I know that some countries don't allow "toy" weapons that use the same calibers as real firearms. this would make .50 illegal in some countries since there are .50 actual firearms.
maybe that's what Italia was talking about. Japan uses a total joules rating like you're suggesting - meaning you could shoot .50 faster than .68 - IF they're allowed.
