EU to Ban Anonymous Crypto by 2027 in Major AML Crackdown
The European Union is rolling out strict new Anti-Money Laundering rules that will ban privacy coins and anonymous crypto accounts starting in 2027. Under the AML Regulation (AMLR), banks, financial firms, and crypto service providers will no longer be allowed to offer or support anonymous accounts or privacy-focused cryptocurrencies like Monero and Zcash. The move aims to increase transparency and combat illicit activities in the digital asset space across all member states.
