The FATF’s 2025 crypto guideline update mandates stricter AML/CFT compliance, requiring VASPs to verify wallet ownership and share transaction data globally. This curbs anonymity, potentially stabilizing the $2.5T crypto market by deterring illicit flows ($1.5B tracked in 2024). Volatility may dip as institutional trust grows, though compliance costs could squeeze smaller players. Compliant projects like Chainlink, with secure data oracles and $1B TVL, gain investment appeal. Suggestion: Allocate 10-15% to proven, FATF-aligned projects, balancing with BTC to offset regulatory risks.
