A compliance rule is a regulation or guideline that financial entities and participants must follow to meet legal and ethical standards. In the digital asset sector, these rules govern operations such as anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), and sanctions screening. Adherence to compliance rules is essential for maintaining operational legality and avoiding penalties. These stipulations aim to prevent illicit activities and protect market integrity.
