Crypto Exchanges

Abstract: Abstract As crypto adoption has accelerated across the globe, the number of crypto exchanges around the world has steadily risen to service increased demand for exposure to digital assets from both retail and institutional investors. But not all crypto exchanges are alike. It is important to distinguish between centralised crypto exchanges (which can provide fiat on-ramps) and decentralised crypto exchanges (which do not require anything in the way of registration and identity checks from new users). After examining the differences between the two types of exchanges, we wade through some of the biggest regulatory and security challenges for centralised and decentralised crypto exchanges today, from counterparty and smart contract risk to compliance with KYC/AML checks.
