Regulated Entities are organizations or individuals operating within the digital asset space that are subject to oversight and compliance requirements by governmental or financial authorities. These include licensed cryptocurrency exchanges, custodial service providers, and institutions offering crypto-related financial products. Their operations must adhere to specific legal frameworks concerning anti-money laundering, know-your-customer, and consumer protection.
