Regulatory scrutiny of crypto assets can be seen as a blessing and a challenge, depending on the perspective. Regulatory scrutiny can bring legitimacy to the digital assets industry. In addition, clear regulations and oversight can help build trust among consumers, investors, and traditional financial institutions. This, in turn, can attract more participants to the market.
