How Do KYC and AML Requirements Differ across Regulated and Unregulated Crypto Exchanges?

Regulated exchanges have stringent Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) requirements, mandating identity verification and transaction monitoring to comply with financial laws. Unregulated exchanges often have minimal or no such requirements, allowing users to trade anonymously.

This difference impacts compliance and the potential for illicit finance.
