#Regulacion Exchanges, DeFi and stablecoins

Cryptocurrency exchange platforms (exchanges), DeFi (decentralized finance) protocols, and stablecoin issuers are facing new challenges and opportunities as a result of regulations implemented in the United States in 2025.

For exchanges, stricter Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti Money Laundering (AML) regulations have become a fundamental requirement. In the case of DeFi platforms, the challenge lies in reconciling their decentralized and permissionless nature with regulatory demands. Platforms must implement transaction monitoring mechanisms and investor protection, which may limit their operations but also ensures greater transparency and security.
