Crypto regulation is shaping the industry by enforcing consumer protection, financial compliance, and anti-fraud measures. Governments worldwide implement KYC and AML requirements, tax reporting rules, and licensing for crypto businesses. Regulatory bodies like the SEC, FCA, and MAS influence token classifications, while stablecoin issuers, DeFi protocols, and NFT platforms face increasing scrutiny. Crypto exchanges must comply with international FATF travel rules, security audits, and regulatory reporting to maintain legitimacy. As decentralized finance grows, regulators debate self-regulatory mechanisms, DAO governance models, and global crypto standards to balance innovation and investor safety.
