Navigating Regulatory Challenges
Many app layer companies have faced significant barriers in launching their projects due to regulatory uncertainties. Currently, around 30 to 40 companies are reportedly blocked from fully realizing their intended applications. This has led some of those who managed to launch to only offer a fraction of their original vision, impacting innovation in the crypto space. Moving forward, a focus on developing products within a clearer regulatory framework is essential to not only facilitate new ventures but also to encourage robust experimentation.
