Promote with Leviathan NewsTL;DR: Trinidad and Tobago has passed a new crypto regulation bill ahead of a major FATF review, but the process sparked chaos after over 200 amendments were dropped on lawmakers minutes before debate. The bill creates a licensing and supervision framework for virtual asset firms, aimed at tightening AML/CFT controls, though critics say the rushed changes disrespect parliament and could stifle innovation. Despite the pushback, the bill passed 25–11 and now moves toward final approval.
