Crypto currency has become a pivotal component of modern financial systems, but it also poses unique regulatory challenges. This study investigates the major types of legal violations associated with crypto currency, specifically securities fraud, anti-money laundering (AML) breaches, and unlicensed operations. The paper presents a literature review, outlines research methodology, and analyzes data to understand the nature, frequency, and impact of these violations. It further evaluates the regulatory response and assesses the effectiveness of enforcement actions globally. The aim is to provide insights for regulators, investors, and policymakers to mitigate risks and enhance compliance in the crypto ecosystem.
