Insolvency Frameworks in the digital asset sector refer to the legal and procedural structures designed to manage the financial failure of cryptocurrency exchanges, lending platforms, or other digital asset businesses. These frameworks outline the process for asset recovery, creditor claims, and the equitable distribution of remaining assets. They aim to provide clarity and protection for users and investors during financial distress. Robust frameworks are essential for market stability.
