    As of now, the latest regulations for Canadian cryptocurrency are focused on anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) requirements. Cryptocurrency exchanges and other businesses operating in the crypto space are required to register with the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) as money services businesses (MSBs). This ensures compliance with AML and KYC regulations and helps prevent illicit activities such as money laundering and terrorist financing.
