Regulation is a bit of a scary word in the world of crypto right now.
But is all regulation actually bad for crypto?
And how are the biggest economies like America, China, and the EU regulating crypto?
On this week’s episode of CoinMarketCap, we’re taking a deep dive into what crypto regulation is, how it works, and what it means for all you crypto HODLers out there.
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being a speculative investment to a fundamental part of a balanced investment portfolio.
Today, 16% of Americans invest in, trade, or use crypto, according to Pew Research.
So it’s hardly surprising that governments around the world are pondering how best to regulate the growing crypto space.
As you’ve no doubt seen by now, individual countries have taken varying approaches to regulating crypto with unpredictable consequences.
The UK’s regulators, for example, allow British citizens to buy and hold as much crypto as they want, but have cracked down on advertisements for cryptocurrencies and platforms.
China, on the other hand, has criminalised cryptocurrency transactions and crypto mining across the country.
To help you navigate the regulations heading toward cryptocurrencies, we’ve put together this video, where you’ll learn about:
What we mean by crypto regulation.
Which methods officials are using to regulate crypto?

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Is regulation of crypto a good or a bad thing? We believe that, at a minimum, is necessary to regulate in order to protect the public from scams and frauds, and crypto platforms from hacking and other cyber crimes. There are other type of regulations which will depend on countries and financial laws (which will have to adapt to these new assets). If not, we see crypto bans here and there, or suspicions from part of investors and users of non regulated assets. Interesting discussion in this podcast.
