Regulated Ecosystem

Definition

A regulated ecosystem refers to a market or industry environment where activities are governed by established legal frameworks, rules, and oversight bodies. In the digital asset space, this means cryptocurrency exchanges, stablecoin issuers, or other service providers operate under specific governmental licenses and compliance requirements. Regulation aims to protect consumers, prevent illicit financial activities, and ensure market integrity. Such environments provide a higher degree of legal certainty and investor protection.
