Crypto exchanges

Crypto exchanges face a “fork in the road” in terms of either embracing an ideology of independence from regulation or aligning more closely with the global financial system, which stresses the need for regulation and transparent frameworks, said David Schwimmer, LSEG`s chief executive officer.

These are risking long-term damage to their industry for remaining in Russia as Western governments seek to isolate Moscow, the head of the London Stock Exchange Group said on Wednesday, calling it a “watershed moment.”
Unlike payment companies, most crypto exchanges have rejected calls to cut off all Russian users, sparking concerns among European officials and U.S. lawmakers that digital assets could be used to circumvent sanctions the United States and Europe have piled on Moscow in the wake of its invasion of Ukraine.

“If that industry is seen as a bad actor … on the implementation of, or the avoidance of, sanctions in terms with what is going on with Russia, I think that would have a long-term impact in terms of how that industry is perceived,” he said at a conference hosted by the Futures Industry Association in Boca Raton, Florida.
