So the real problem is finding the identity of the founder you don't really know? Then I want to ask what the government is doing when an exchange is big? Is this just a government strategy to tax the exchange founders or something?
it seems that this could be one of the reasons why decentralization regulations should exist. but there may be a positive side to decentralization

That would be a major challenge governments will face to have in the long run. The fact that they want to regulate crypto so badly, tells us that they're desperate to collect taxes. And something they can't control like a decentralized exchange, will make them furious. I can't imagine what strategy governments will come up with to "catch" the creator of a decentralized exchange. The US government was successful in penalizing EtherDelta's founder because his identity was public. But what if it was all the other way around? Then it would've been impossible to find him. Regulations can only be enforced in a centralized environment. When governments try to regulate something that's decentralized, they'll eventually fail because there's no single point of failure. A distributed network is outside the jurisdiction of a single government. I doubt governments will be successful at enforcing regulations on decentralized exchanges in the future.

Nonetheless, time will tell us whenever decentralized exchanges will live up to their name or not. Only truly-decentralized exchanges will stand the test of time. My guess is that Block DX and Atomic Swaps will be immune to regulations because of their truly-decentralized design. People will be able to trade from one crypto to another without the need for KYC. It'll be the future of crypto/Blockchain tech as governments begin to crackdown on centralized exchanges. At least, crypto's vision of "banking for the unbanked" will be realized. And that's what truly matters. Just my thoughts Grin

Speaking of p2p technology and cross chain atomic swaps
have you checked this project named QORTAL
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5258519.0

This can run on a rasberyPI at your home.
No more bulshit KYC/AML and exchane hacks because you own your keys.

Remeber NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR COINS.

Thanks for sharing. We definitely need more decentralized solutions to maintain crypto/Blockchain tech as censorship-resistant as possible. The new QORTAL DEX seems promising. But the lack of liquidity could harm its adoption in the mainstream world. At least, it's better something than nothing.
