The Evolution of Cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency has moved from a cypherpunk experiment to a regulated, institutionally-held asset class — and its history offers a clear pattern for boards to recognize: rapid innovation, followed by high-profile failure, followed by regulatory correction. This condensed briefing distills that pattern through the collapses that shaped the industry — Mt. Gox, the ICO boom and bust, and the Terra/FTX crisis — alongside the illicit-finance risks (ransomware, money laundering) that have long tested the technology's governance.
It also sets out what has measurably worked: the FATF Travel Rule, global AML/KYC regimes, and the regulatory frameworks now governing digital assets, including a dedicated look at the GCC region, where Dubai's VARA and Bahrain's CBB Crypto-Asset Module have built some of the world's most structured licensing regimes.
