Virtual asset markets are platforms and environments where digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and other tokenized securities, are traded. These markets facilitate the buying, selling, and exchange of digital value between participants, often operating 24/7 and globally. They encompass centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, and peer-to-peer trading platforms. Their operations are a fundamental component of the digital economy.
