Crypto Regulation Map: Securities, Commodities, Stablecoins, and DeFi
A jurisdiction-neutral method for separating asset classification, activity-based rules, licensing, market conduct, custody, disclosures, and enforcement.
§ Regulation
Separate proposals, final rules, enforcement actions, court decisions, licenses, and international frameworks across the digital asset landscape.
Coverage framework
Separate proposals, final rules, enforcement actions, court decisions, licenses, and international frameworks across the digital asset landscape.
A proposal, final rule, guidance, complaint, settlement, court decision, and speech carry different legal weight. Our regulation coverage states who issued the document, when it applies, which entities and activities it covers, and what remains contested.
Crypto businesses can combine exchange, brokerage, custody, lending, staking, payments, and issuance. We separate those functions and identify the legal entity and customer location before drawing conclusions from a license or enforcement action.
We use precise verbs—proposed, adopted, alleged, charged, settled, held—and label forecasts about market effects as analysis. International recommendations are distinguished from domestic implementation and product-specific obligations.
