When something grows to a sufficient scale, issues related to consumer interests and money laundering will follow, so there are ample reasons to believe that regulation will occur.
As for the future regulatory landscape, Stefan Ingves did not provide specific details. He only mentioned that cryptocurrency regulation might take place in different locations, times, and forms.
At the same time, Asa Lindhagen, the Swedish Minister for Financial Markets, stated that the government is tightening standards for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency exchanges. She pointed out that this is an international effort.
Asa Lindhagen further emphasized the government's concerns about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies being used for money laundering, considering it a "very critical issue" that requires cross-border cooperation. Additionally, Erik Thedeen, the head of the Swedish financial regulatory authority, commented, "Clearly, cryptocurrencies need some form of regulation." |
