The ongoing compliance burden on smaller exchanges.

It feels like the regulatory net continues to widen, particularly around AML and transaction monitoring. For a smaller exchange, keeping up with global standards while trying to innovate and compete against giants like Coinbase is an increasingly heavy lift. Even with $QQQ at 708.76, the operational overhead seems to grow disproportionately for those not already scaled.

While the compliance burden is real, isn't it also crucial for building trust in the long run? A more regulated environment, even if costly for smaller exchanges, ultimately protects users and could lead to wider adoption. Perhaps the challenge is more about finding efficient tech solutions for compliance.

I completely agree. It's not just about the initial setup anymore; the continuous updates and audits required are a significant drain on resources. It makes it hard for smaller players to even consider entering the market.
