Let's be real—new crypto regulations aren't inherently bad. The real question is whether they'll actually be enforced.

We've seen plenty of rules on paper that just sit there doing nothing. What matters is execution. If regulators have the resources, commitment, and clear frameworks to actually follow through, then tightening standards on exchanges, custody, and compliance could actually strengthen the space.

The crypto industry doesn't need to fear well-designed rules paired with consistent enforcement. What it should worry about is the opposite: ambiguous policies that nobody enforces equally, creating a patchwork that's worse than no regulation at all.

So yeah, bring on the new crypto rules—but only if someone's actually going to make sure people follow them.
