Korbit has settled a $2 million penalty for AML compliance failures. This move reflects the intensifying regulatory crackdown on crypto exchanges worldwide. As authorities tighten oversight, exchanges face mounting pressure to strengthen their anti-money laundering frameworks. The case signals a clear trend: compliance standards in the crypto sector are no longer negotiable. Platforms that lag behind on KYC and transaction monitoring protocols will face escalating enforcement actions. For traders and institutional players, this reinforces the importance of choosing exchanges with robust compliance operations.

Another news about an exchange being fined, this time it's Korbit. Two million dollars are gone just like that. Compliance really can't be taken lightly.

Two million in fines? Korbit is being exploited, just pay the protection fee to stay compliant.

Wait, a $2 million fine? That number is too clean. I need to check out Korbit's on-chain wallet clusters... Does stricter KYC actually indicate what? Are institutions buying insurance for themselves before passing the buck?
