Authorities are currently working on the extension of plans to minimize the threats in the crypto-sphere.
Due to some vulnerabilities within the usage of crypto method methods, therefore a nationwide regulation of cryptocurrencies is underway by the implementation of the European Union’s 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive. It would also be ensured by keeping a close eye on the exchange system.
A document containing the guidelines for global cryptocurrency regulations which is to be released in June’19 will educate the countries being a part of the system to go by a set of internationally accepted rules and policies.
