Understanding Crypto Regulation in Germany
Germany takes a proactive approach to regulating cryptocurrencies, treating them as financial instruments or assets. This means they fall under the laws governing securities, commodities, and investments. Since 2020, cryptocurrency exchanges operating in Germany must obtain a license from BaFin, the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority.

BaFin plays a crucial role in overseeing Germany’s crypto market, including exchanges, brokers, and custodians. Additionally, the country has clear Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations that apply to crypto service providers. They’re obligated to implement Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures, monitor transactions for suspicious activity, and report such activities to the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) via BaFin’s Suspicious Transaction Reporting System.
