EU regulation is catching up with crypto. Once an anarchic domain where only code was law, cryptocurrency's rise to international notoriety has meant that the world's legislators have been busy over the past few years creating a framework that just might tame crypto.

The EU's 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (AMLD5) is one example of this.
