Cryptocurrency compliance refers to adherence to legal and regulatory requirements governing digital asset activities. This includes anti-money laundering AML, know-your-customer KYC protocols, sanctions screening, and reporting obligations designed to prevent illicit financial transactions. Financial institutions and digital asset service providers implement these measures to operate within legal boundaries and mitigate risks associated with illicit uses of cryptocurrencies. Effective compliance frameworks are essential for maintaining market integrity and preventing regulatory penalties.

Strict adherence to these regulations is crucial for digital asset businesses seeking to operate legitimately and gain wider institutional acceptance.
