    In Denmark, the use of cryptocurrencies is regulated by the Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA). The FSA has issued guidelines that classify cryptocurrencies as financial instruments, subjecting them to the same regulations as traditional financial products. This means that cryptocurrency exchanges and service providers must comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements. Additionally, cryptocurrency businesses are required to register with the FSA and obtain a license to operate. The FSA also monitors and supervises the activities of these businesses to ensure compliance with regulations.
