#CryptoRegulation "Crypto Regulation is a Prisoner’s Dilemma – And Everyone is Losing"

Most governments treat crypto regulation as a domestic issue, but the decentralized nature of blockchain means no single country can control it effectively. Instead, we’re seeing a global "race to the bottom" (light-touch rules to attract innovation) clashing with a "race to the top" (strict rules to prevent fraud and systemic risk).

The paradox?

Too loose? Scams and instability spread globally.

Too strict? Innovators flee, and black markets thrive.

The best solution might be "competitive cooperation"—where nations agree on core principles (like anti-money laundering for crypto) while competing on innovation-friendly policies. But until then, the regulatory tug-of-war continues, with crypto users and builders caught in the middle.
