2024 NDAA and Crypto: Striking Balance between Oversight and Innovation

The United States Senate has passed the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act that targets crypto mixers, crypto trading institutions, and anonymous coins. The bill draws provisions from the Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act and the Responsible Financial Innovation Act for improved oversight on crypto-based activities. Key measures include examination standards for crypto, preventing FTX-style events, and studies to curb anonymous crypto transactions.
