The Financial Action Task Force said regulation of virtual assets and virtual asset service providers continued to advance globally through 2026. According to PANews, the report said 86% of jurisdictions have completed risk assessments, 83% have enacted the Travel Rule, and the share of jurisdictions rated broadly compliant with Recommendation 15 rose to 34%.

The report said enforcement, VASP identification, offshore VASP oversight, and DeFi regulation still show clear deficiencies. It also flagged emerging risks including stablecoin abuse, peer-to-peer transactions through non-custodial wallets, offshore VASPs, DeFi, and AI-assisted scams, and called for stronger international cooperation, risk-based supervision, and public-private collaboration.
