Ramp thresholds are predetermined limits on the amount of funds that can be exchanged between fiat and digital assets. These thresholds, applied to on-ramp and off-ramp services, restrict the volume of currency that users can convert between traditional financial systems and cryptocurrencies within specified periods. They are typically implemented to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations, as well as for risk management purposes. Adherence to these limits is a mandatory aspect of regulated digital asset services.
Context
Regulatory bodies globally are increasingly focused on the implementation and enforcement of ramp thresholds to mitigate illicit financial activities within the digital asset sector. Service providers continually adjust these limits to balance regulatory compliance with user convenience. The ongoing challenge involves establishing appropriate thresholds that deter financial crime without unduly hindering legitimate participation in the crypto economy.
