KYC/AML for decentralized exchanges, bridging crypto and traditional finance

I've been thinking about the increasing pressure on DEXs to implement more robust KYC/AML, especially as institutions eye on-ramps to DeFi. What are the current best practices or emerging frameworks for maintaining user privacy while satisfying regulatory demands when you're essentially bridging between a decentralized protocol and traditional finance with its strict compliance requirements?

It's a tricky balance. I wonder if zero-knowledge proofs could offer a solution, allowing verification without revealing personal data directly on-chain.

This is super interesting. I'm wondering if there are any existing projects or protocols that are actually making progress on this, or if it's mostly still theoretical at this point.

The issue isn't 'best practices' for privacy, it's that full KYC/AML inherently compromises it. You can't bridge traditional finance compliance without giving up the core decentralized ethos. It's a binary choice, not a spectrum.
