Recent years, a series of risk events including FTX, attracted the attention of regulators in various countries, and made the industry realize that strengthening the supervision of the currency and improving the operations transparency operations became urgent. Regulators must keep pace with the ever-evolving landscape of blockchain technology while embracing innovation. It is crucial for them to implement up-to-date regulatory measures to effectively manage risks and establish the necessary conditions for a well-organized and thriving market. Therefore, we can see that the supervision of the market in many countries has increased significantly since 2023. For example, the international monetary fund (IMF) made more actions to regulate and avoid the volatility of cryptocurrency affecting banks and traditional financial institutions. The European Union also requires banks to consider cryptocurrency as one of the riskiest assets. As well as, South Korea is accelerating the formulation and introduction of laws regarding cryptocurrency etc.. All in all, towards the crypto market, the main attitude of various countries is to standardize operations, strengthen risk management and fight with illegal acts such as money laundering, so as to protect users’ security and safety. These are significant support for confidence reconstruction in the crypto industry and market of 2023.
