How Do Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) Face Enforcement Challenges from Regulators?
Regulators struggle to enforce rules against DAOs because they lack a clear, central legal entity, jurisdiction, or identifiable person to hold accountable. This anonymity and distributed nature complicate the application of traditional laws, particularly AML/KYC, forcing regulators to consider targeting developers, governance token holders, or front-end interfaces.
