Slowly, then all at once: with the EU's Markets in Crypto-assets Regulation becoming fully applicable from December 2024, and the signing of the US GENIUS Act into law in July 2025, jurisdictions across the world are accelerating the development of regulatory frameworks for crypto and digital asset markets.
For the most part, regulatory uncertainty remains a significant challenge—but as financial markets increasingly adopt digital assets and tokenization, regulators and policymakers are also increasingly prioritizing the development of clear rules on digital asset activities such as issuance of stablecoins, operation of trading platforms, custody of digital assets, and more.
