Most companies, especially large ones, have little choice but to play by the rules, however arbitrary they may be. This is one reason why consumer adoption of cryptocurrencies in many countries has far outpaced that of businesses. Governments generally do not have the power to prosecute every consumer for every infraction. Exchanging your local currency for cryptocurrencies or stablecoins may not be legal, but individuals can often get away with it. Companies, however, have real-world assets, such as real estate and factories of immense value, that can be seized as penalties.
