How does this affect players from the EU?

Europe’s stringent new approach to crypto KYC is upsetting the blockchain world.

The European Parliament has voted to require all crypto transactions to include information on the parties involved, essentially outlawing anonymous crypto transactions. The new know-your-customer rules, which would also cover transactions involving unhosted wallets, are aimed at curbing money laundering in Europe.

The EU vote underlines growing concern over the use of crypto for money laundering and other illicit activity, and the push to make crypto companies more accountable for the digital assets that flow through their platforms.
