Compliance frameworks — AML, KYC, market structure, licensing regimes, and custody rules.
Event contracts and 24/7 leveraged bets on CPI, Fed moves, and oil are outrunning the legal frameworks meant to define them — and that classification fight now decides whether US venues can host the…
A four-year telecom KYC retention window would bundle names, IDs, and service history onto phone numbers that already unlock exchange and wallet recovery — and the FCC's own filing asks whether that…
Treasury, the OCC, and the FDIC are converting the GENIUS Act from a permission framework into an operating regime — weekly reports, BSA obligations, and a yield ban that favor incumbents like Circle…
A 37-bank European push for regulated euro tokens faces the same headwind that buried Turkish lira stablecoins: liquidity, not regulation, decides which sovereign currency wins on-chain.
The cash cap is the easy headline — the crypto-asset service provider KYC overhaul, anonymity-coin restrictions, and expanded beneficial ownership transparency reshape how EU-based venues onboard…
The yes-or-no contracts won't be event-style like Kalshi or Polymarket, but they slot a top US brokerage directly into the same wagering lane — and signal TradFi is comfortable moving closer to…
Fed's first GENIUS Act rulemaking lands mid-countdown — issuer identification program drops the same week the market-structure bill needs floor time to clear the Senate before recess.

The discussion paper lands the first structured attempt by a national EU regulator to operationalize MiCA's 'full decentralisation' carve-out — and it lands while MiCA's DeFi gap is still being…

The Zug-based firm says it tracks 99.41% of all stablecoin payments and protects over $30B in customer assets — signals that the compliance layer beneath the stablecoin stack is starting to attract…
