Regulated Infrastructure

Definition

Regulated infrastructure refers to the foundational systems and services that operate under the oversight and rules established by governmental or financial authorities. These frameworks impose specific standards for security, compliance, and operational integrity to protect participants and maintain market stability. In the digital asset sector, this includes licensed exchanges, custodial services, and payment processors that adhere to anti-money laundering and know-your-customer requirements. Such infrastructure aims to provide a secure and trustworthy environment for digital asset activities.
