As cryptocurrency continues to attract mainstream attention, hacks and scams are making it hard for crypto to flinch from the word controversy.
And because of the fundamental role being played by crypto exchanges in the overall ecosystem along with its tie-up with conventional finance, we need to understand what it has to do with regulation, how it is done, and whether you as a crypto exchange should get in line.
To understand the current picture of regulation, Jamie Mcnaught the Founder, CEO, and Lead Engineer of Solidi Digital Currency Exchange gives us a better view.

- Why do you think so few companies have been registered so far?
- [00:05:24] Jamie McNaught
- What reasons do you see would being regulated be considered as fully advantageous?
- [00:07:19] Jamie McNaught
- Are there any alternatives that you see to registrations that will help businesses enter the market quickly at potentially a lesser cost than going through the registration process?
- [00:09:42] Jamie McNaught
- How long it would take to get registered in the UK?
- [00:12:16] Jamie McNaught

- What are some of the risks for companies who are still on the waiting list to being registered?
- [00:18:52] Jamie McNaught
- What do you expect to see in the coming 12 to 18 months? Do you expect to see a lot more companies added to that list? Or are you expecting to see the majority of the companies being removed from that?
