Uncovering the Truth: Bybit’s $2.4M Fine Raises Questions About Crypto Regulation
Nestmates! De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB) imposed a $2.4M fine on Bybit for operating without mandatory registration in the Netherlands, breaching anti-money laundering regulations.
Bybit's non-compliance hindered reporting of suspicious transactions, sparking transparency concerns. However, the exchange has since transferred Dutch customers to local partner SATOS B.V. and operates under their license.
Bybit's CEO, Ben Zhou, reaffirmed commitment to "responsible growth" and cooperation with European regulators.
