    I want to get into blockchain compliance/regulation, but I’m not sure how my finance and legal background translates here. I’ve got zero hands-on blockchain tech experience—do I need to learn coding, or is that overkill for compliance roles? What certifications are actually worth the time/money? (Looking at you, CBP and stuff like that.)

    I am really confused how to make this shift? what will be the obstacles if anyone moved from traditional finance or law into this space?

    whether my existing skills will be useful or do i need to learn multiple things from scratch. Any resources or paths you’d recommend for someone just trying to break in? Appreciate the help!

    In my opinion, breaking into blockchain regulation and compliance starts with getting a good grasp of blockchain technology itself. You don’t need to dive deep into coding, but understanding how blockchain works is crucial.

    I’d recommend focusing on learning about key regulations like GDPR, AML, and KYC, as they’re often central to this field. Certifications related to blockchain and compliance, such as those from ACAMS or other industry-recognized programs, can really boost your credibility. Networking is also vital—engage with professionals in the field through events and online forums. Hands-on experience is key, so look for internships or entry-level roles in companies working with blockchain technology or financial regulation. This mix of knowledge, credentials, and practical experience should help you carve out a solid career in this exciting area.
