A regulatory technical standard is a detailed rule or specification developed by regulators to implement broader legal requirements. These standards provide precise, legally binding technical specifications that firms must follow to comply with financial legislation. In the digital asset sphere, they might define specific data reporting formats, security protocols for digital wallets, or operational requirements for crypto exchanges. Their purpose is to ensure consistent application of law and enhance supervisory convergence.

The development and finalization of these standards often involve extensive consultation with industry participants. Debates center on their practical implementation, cost of compliance, and effectiveness in achieving regulatory objectives without stifling innovation.
