  Cryptocurrency exchanges in French Polynesia are subject to regulatory oversight to ensure compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) requirements. The regulatory framework aims to prevent illicit activities such as money laundering, terrorist financing, and fraud. It is important for cryptocurrency exchanges to implement robust AML and KYC procedures, including customer identification, transaction monitoring, and reporting suspicious activities. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in penalties or even the revocation of the exchange's license.
