Curacao Issues Crypto Policy for Online Operators

The Curacao Gaming Authority has published a detailed crypto policy guideline for B2C license holders. This policy sets out controls that govern how operators accept, hold, and pay out digital assets.

The document applies to all group entities supporting the licensed operator, not just the entity holding the license itself. It covers the entire cryptocurrency lifecycle within a licensed operation, from deposit screening and wallet architecture to withdrawal processing and incident reporting.

The CGA emphasizes that crypto is not a regulatory carve-out and must be integrated into existing AML/CFT frameworks. Operators are required to detail their cryptocurrency-specific controls within their submitted AML policy on the CGA portal.
