This episode examines how regulatory compliance—especially anti-money laundering (AML) rules—is influencing the development of cross-chain crypto. It highlights AML blind spots in blockchain bridges and why they pose risks for tracking and security.
We explore the dilemma facing DeFi protocols between preserving decentralization and meeting KYC/AML expectations, and how some projects are choosing different paths for adoption and safety.
The conversation covers the role of regulators and technology in closing compliance gaps, and stresses the need for collaboration between policymakers and industry to enable secure, scalable cross-chain growth.
