Are There Any Reporting Requirements for Trades Executed on Crypto Dark Pools?

Reporting requirements for crypto dark pools vary significantly based on jurisdiction and the regulatory classification of the asset. In many jurisdictions, especially for pure crypto-to-crypto trades, reporting is minimal or non-existent compared to traditional securities.

However, if the OTC desk operates as a money service business, they may have Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) reporting obligations.
