Singapore Drops a Crypto Regulation 💣!
Singapore is tightening the screws on crypto firms! 🔩 The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is making moves, setting a June 30th deadline for local crypto service providers to halt digital token (DT) services to overseas markets. 🚫
This means Singapore-based companies dealing with digital tokens abroad need to either stop or get licensed. Violators could face fines up to $200,000 and even jail time. 🚨
MAS is worried about regulatory gaps being exploited, especially concerning Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorist Financing (CFT). They're making sure everyone plays by the rules, even when operating outside Singapore.
This is all part of Singapore's effort to address cross-border risks in the crypto space! 🔥
