Crypto Lending Ban

Definition

A Crypto Lending Ban is a prohibition imposed by regulatory bodies on entities offering lending services for digital assets. Such bans are typically enacted to protect consumers from risks associated with the volatility and complexity of crypto markets, or to address concerns about illicit activities. They restrict the ability of platforms to accept deposits and lend out cryptocurrencies, thereby altering the operational landscape for decentralized finance and centralized lending services. Compliance with these directives is mandatory for affected entities.
