Crypto isn’t going away. But The Coin Laundry makes one thing clear: if exchanges want to be taken seriously as financial infrastructure, "we tried" on AML won’t cut it. Either the model absorbs real compliance, or regulators will do it for them. 9/9

For banks and payment firms offering fiat ramps, this is a risk story, not a tech story. Who are you really onboarding when you take exchange money? How robust is your DD on VASPs that show up in investigations like this? 8/9

Coin Laundry shows what that resistance looks like in practice: not abstract 'overregulation', but real people losing savings to scams, and organised crime using mainstream exchanges as high-speed off-ramps into the fiat system. 7/9

Over the years I’ve seen parts of the crypto industry fight AML rules tooth and nail: from basic KYC to travel rule, from registration to monitoring. The sales pitch is 'freedom'. The reality is often pushing AML back until the fines land. 6/9

The report tells a hard truth on compliance in this space: cutting off high-risk flows hits fees and volumes, and that is still a line many business models struggle to cross. 5/9

A core example: Huione, a Cambodia-based group labelled a “primary money laundering concern”, kept sending huge tether flows into Binance and OKX accounts even after US warnings and enforcement. Compliance fixes didn’t close the pipes. 4/9

Coin Laundry focuses mainly on 2022–2025, with a hard zoom on mid-2024 to mid-2025. That’s important: this is not just “Wild West crypto” era. It’s about flows through household-name exchanges in an era of licences, monitors and supposed mature compliance. 3/9

ICIJ and dozens of media partners mapped flows linked to scam centres, drug cartels, North Korean hackers and Russian networks. It shows big-name exchanges are handling billions in suspect flows while users think they’re on “safe” platforms. 2/9

What’s next? The EU Commission is expected to present the proposal on 19 November. Then the EU Parliament and Member States get their say. This will decide how far “legitimate interest” can go and how much control users really keep. 10/10

For gamers, streamers and creators that means more of your content, voice and behaviour data can be fed into AI systems by default. Opt-outs get weaker, transparency fuzzier – and you learn you’re “in the training mix” when models are already live. 9/10

This isn’t just theory. If “legitimate interest” becomes the default for AI, it shapes how (e.g.) game platforms, streaming sites and socials train on gameplay, VODs, clips, chats and DMs – from moderation to recommendations to generative tools. 8/10

Interest groups talk about “rollback” and “death by a thousand cuts” of the GDPR. Academics warn about clashes with CJEU case law and the EU Charter. Politically it’s sold as red-tape cutting while quietly rewriting AI and tracking rules. 7/10

There *are* improvements: harmonised DPIA templates, clearer lists for when impact assessments are needed, plus promises of more transparency and a stronger right to object. Critics see this mainly as risk of more paperwork, not more power for users. 6/10

At the same time, the draft narrows what counts as “personal” and “sensitive” data. Pseudonymous IDs, logs and some inferences may fall outside the stricter rules. For AI pipelines built on ad IDs and profiles, that’s a downgrade. 5/10

That nudges the default. Today you only touch sensitive data if it’s strictly necessary and fits a narrow exception. Under the Omnibus logic it’s easier to say: “we couldn’t realistically strip this data out without breaking the AI”. 4/10

Big shift for AI: training, testing and running models would be labelled a “legitimate interest”. That sounds like firms don’t need consent for training on EU data, as long as a balancing test looks OK on paper. 3/10

Officially, the Digital Omnibus is about “simplifying” EU digital law. In reality, the leak goes for core GDPR concepts: what counts as personal data, sensitive data and how strong users’ rights really are. 2/10

Key takeaways: be mindful of lawful acquisition, keep provenance logs, set retention limits, respect EU opt-outs, and expect more licensing. Keep an eye on new US rulings and EU guidance under the AI Act. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 10/10
