Nations taking proactive efforts against crypto

As per the report, Germany has taken the most proactive efforts to tame virtual digital currencies. The nation has also implemented the EU’s 2020 anti money laundering directives. This has been used against the companies holding crypto assets in the name of the clients.

The Central Bank has shown concerns regarding adjudicating digital assets related licenses pursued by the banks. However, there is no pan European framework in place. This matter will be discussed with the broader need for ‘harmonisation’ of eurozone approaches.

Meanwhile, other nation like the Netherland is focused on registration over anti money laundering compliance. However, some are looking for considering wider measures after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
