As governments and institutions grapple with regulating Layer 1 blockchains, approaches vary widely - from integrating permissionless technologies within structured regulatory environments to favouring permissioned measures for greater oversight.
This panel will explore how Layer 1 protocols influence regulatory strategies, examining challenges such as decentralized governance, tax policy complexities, and AML/KYC compliance, as well as how emerging approaches, such as decentralised blockchain protocols, can support organisations in achieving their regulatory objectives. What approaches can regulators and industry leaders take to support blockchain innovation and interoperability while safeguarding economic stability and compliance?
