Ireland just tightened the screws on private crypto wallets.

This is their first national AML strategy, building on the EU Transfer of Funds Regulation and the FATF travel rule. Crypto firms now face stricter due diligence for overseas companies and private wallet transfers.

Our read: This isn't just Ireland. MiCA is in force. Brussels plans to reopen the rulebook in 2027 to cover non-EU stablecoin issuers. The trend is clear: more scrutiny, tighter rules. Criminals exploit new tech, but regulators will squeeze the entire space to stop them.

The Fear & Greed Index is at 29 (Fear). Would you keep funds on a private wallet in a jurisdiction with an explicit strategy to track them?
