Policy testing involves evaluating the effectiveness, feasibility, and unintended consequences of proposed or existing rules and regulations. In the digital asset sector, this means assessing how new legislative measures or industry standards might impact market participants, technological innovation, and overall stability. This process helps policymakers refine regulatory approaches before full implementation. It ensures that policies achieve their intended objectives without creating undue burdens or adverse outcomes.
