    As a VASP operating in the crypto space, you need to adhere to various regulatory requirements to ensure compliance. These requirements may vary depending on the jurisdiction you operate in, but generally include KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures, AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations, and reporting obligations. It is crucial to establish robust customer identification processes, implement transaction monitoring systems, and maintain proper records to meet these requirements. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in severe penalties and legal consequences.
