๐จ๐น๐ผ Taiwan tightens crypto rules starting in October
The Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) announced that it will apply the FATF Travel Rule to all domestic cryptocurrency transfers. This means that VASPs (crypto platforms) must share sender and recipient data for every transaction, regardless of the amount.
๐ Key points:
All transfers between local exchanges will be monitored.
If they exceed NT$30,000 (~$930 USD) โ additional information will be requested: date of birth, address, or corporate tax ID.
Receiving platforms must verify that the data matches their records.
Phase 1: October 2026 โ internal transfers.
Phase 2: end of 2027 โ international transfers.
Penalties for non-compliance: between NT$500K and NT$10M.
๐ฅ Market impact:
More transparency and institutional trust.
Debate over privacy and decentralization.
Traders are discussing whether to move toward DeFi and Web3 wallets ๐ธ๐.
๐ The measure aims to align Taiwan with global AML/CFT standards, but many crypto enthusiasts feel that financial freedom is being threatened.
๐ Is this the end of decentralizationโor the beginning of large-scale institutional adoption?
