Governments and financial institutions around the world have implemented KYC regulations to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illegal activities. By verifying the identity of ICO participants, the risk of fraudulent activities can be reduced, ensuring a safer and more transparent environment for investors and the overall cryptocurrency market.
