CSA Cites Stablecoin Risks in Extending Crypto Compliance Deadline

The CSA moved to extend the crypto compliance deadline to emphasize investor protection. It has been a very tricky area: regulating stablecoins pegged to the traditional currencies.

Due to non-compliance with the new regulations for exchanges, some penalties or product restrictions may well arise. For having licensed platforms such as Kraken and Coinbase continue to operate, it’s done under tighter rules.
