Regarding the CARF international compliance framework, there's a detail that is easily overlooked—it currently does not include Chinese users in its reporting scope. In other words, Chinese users are not temporarily covered by this mechanism. But that doesn't mean there is no impact. The real killer feature of CARF lies in transforming the ecosystem of fiat on-ramps and off-ramps. Changes in compliant exchanges' payment channels, cross-border transfer methods, and fund clearing pathways—the underlying infrastructure—are the key. These reshape the compliance foundation of global cryptocurrency asset trading.

honestly this is the real play tho... they're not coming after china directly but they're choking the fiat rails where it actually matters. that's where the system vulnerability lives—payment channels, settlement paths, all that infrastructure stuff. the framework's genius isn't the reporting mechanism, it's weaponizing the on-ramp/off-ramp architecture itself

Ha, Chinese users have temporarily avoided a disaster? Don't celebrate too early, once the underlying payment chain changes, chaos will ensue.

Chinese users have bypassed CARF's direct regulation, but when the underlying infrastructure changes, it's a whole different story... With a compliant exchange's payment channel card, deposits and withdrawals are still affected.

Chinese users have temporarily avoided a disaster, but it's useless if the deposit and withdrawal channels are blocked.

Oh, these details are indeed easy to overlook. Chinese users have temporarily avoided a disaster, but the underlying infrastructure has changed the game rules.
