Anti-money laundering (AML) refers to laws, regulations, and procedures designed to prevent the use of financial systems for illegal activities such as money laundering and terrorist financing. In the crypto context, AML measures require exchanges and service providers to monitor transactions and report suspicious activity. These rules often include identity verification, transaction tracking, and compliance reporting. AML frameworks aim to reduce financial crime while allowing legitimate use of digital assets. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and are enforced by regulatory authorities.
