A regulatory policy pivot refers to a significant and often sudden change in a government’s or regulatory body’s approach or stance towards a particular industry or activity. In the context of digital assets, this signifies a notable shift in how cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, or related services are overseen and governed. Such a pivot can involve new legislation, revised guidelines, or a fundamental alteration in enforcement priorities. These changes can profoundly impact market sentiment and operational strategies for businesses.
