Stupid law.
All these will only be effective on users who have refused to desist from the use of a custodial wallet and think their privacy is nothing in anyway to affect them, until they are been banned from using any of the exchanges by the government regulation and their asset frozen along with these centralized exchanges before learning their lessons, if we could only realized that bitcoin is not what is expected of us to hold on centralized exchanges, instead on our personal non custodial wallets.
