Regulatory Risk

The landscape of laws and regulations governing blockchain-based solutions, and specifically decentralized finance, is in constant flux, varying significantly across jurisdictions and possibly influencing the future functionality and legal standing of the Protocol. The evolving regulatory stance on what constitutes sufficient or full decentralization poses a significant challenge for existing DeFi projects, with potential implications for how they are regulated and operated.

Future adjustments may be required and include: implementing measures for the collection and sharing of user data for compliance, introducing additional control mechanisms within the Protocol's code to manage access under specific legal conditions, and preparing for potential requirements to withhold taxes directly through the Protocol.

Such future adjustments may negatively impact the DeFi ecosystem, including token liquidity, the range of available assets, and access to certain markets.

Beyond operational changes, the possibility of regulatory penalties cannot be completely ruled out. Such events could affect the Protocol and the Association's reputation and treasury.

Because of the above, we will keep the community updated on the latest regulatory developments affecting the Protocol and the Association as an Interface provider and supporter of the community. The Keom blog will occasionally demystify legal complexities, though it's important to note that these updates are for informational purposes and should not be considered personalized legal advice.

Each user shall seek personalized legal advice regarding their interaction with the Protocol.

Given the diverse impact of regulatory changes across different jurisdictions, understanding how these changes affect your interaction with the Protocol is crucial. Before submitting any transaction through the Protocol, consult with a legal professional to gain clarity and ensure compliance with laws applicable to your situation.
