The Great Web3 Exodus from Singapore: What Changes Lie Ahead?
Source: Tiger Research
Compiled by: Blockchain in Plain Language
Overview
Singapore has attracted numerous Web3 companies due to its flexible regulatory environment, earning it the title of 'the Delaware of Asia.' However, the surge of shell companies and the high-profile failures of Terraform Labs and 3AC have exposed regulatory loopholes.
In 2025, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) will implement the Digital Token Service Provider (DTSP) framework, requiring all companies providing digital asset services in Singapore to obtain a license; merely being registered companies will no longer suffice to conduct digital asset business.
Singapore continues to support innovation, but regulatory intensity has significantly increased, with the government demanding higher levels of responsibility and compliance. Web3 companies in Singapore need to develop operational capabilities or consider relocating to other jurisdictions.

Compiled by: Plain Language Blockchain

Turmoil in the Middle East has also impacted the crypto market, but fortunately, the market quickly absorbed the shock.

According to the Associated Press, on June 17, the U.S. Senate passed the GENIUS Act, which has now been submitted to the House of Representatives, increasing pressure to shape the next phase of digital asset regulation in the U.S. The bill establishes a federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, requiring 1:1 reserves, consumer protection, and anti-money laundering mechanisms.
