Regulated crypto activities are operations involving digital assets that fall under the legal oversight and supervisory authority of government bodies or financial regulators. These activities can include trading, custody, issuance, and lending of cryptocurrencies. Compliance with specific laws and regulations, such as licensing and anti-money laundering rules, is mandatory for entities conducting such operations. This ensures market stability and consumer protection.
Context
The scope of regulated crypto activities is rapidly expanding globally as jurisdictions establish clearer legal frameworks for digital assets. A key debate involves classifying various digital assets as securities, commodities, or currencies, which dictates the applicable regulatory regime. Future developments will likely see increased international cooperation to standardize regulations and prevent regulatory arbitrage across different markets.
