2024 has been called the largest election year in history, as over over 60 countries host their elections. As we kickstart 2025, it’s impossible to ignore the impact of these elections. In addition to shaping domestic policies and international relationships, these elections create numerous uncertainty particularly in the fast-evolving digital assets sector.
At a time when cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance (DeFi) are overlapping with the mainstream financial markets, clear and effective regulation and guidelines are critical for innovation, security, and stability of global financial markets.
This panel focus on 4 major topics that have emerged as critical issues
- AML/KYC
- Sandboxes
- DeFi
- Privacy and Security
This panel will look to advocate the need for global cooperation among the public and private sector – particularly in AML/KYC efforts; the importance of fostering innovation through sandboxes; the necessity of clear, risk-based frameworks for DeFi; and the prioritization of privacy and security.
By examining the successes and challenges of these key topics, this panel seeks to provide a roadmap for navigating the uncertain digital assets market ahead in 2025.
