Alan Poyatos: “Regulation is a consumer value—when it’s proportionate and workable”
Blog post from Didit
Alan Poyatos, Chief Compliance Officer at BitBase, is a prominent figure in Spain's crypto ecosystem, leveraging his legal background and early Bitcoin investment to advocate for well-crafted regulation that builds consumer trust and drives business growth. At BitBase, he oversees a hybrid business model combining physical stores and ATMs with an online presence to cater to customers who prefer human support. Poyatos emphasizes the importance of proportionate regulation, such as MiCA, to ensure consumer value and increase transparency while acknowledging the challenges of balancing compliance with innovation. He highlights the necessity of crypto in Latin America as opposed to its investment-driven nature in Europe and stresses the importance of robust fraud prevention measures against deepfakes and social engineering. Poyatos sees regulation as added value rather than a barrier, believing it fosters trust and reduces irresponsible practices, although he notes that high compliance costs can deter small entrepreneurs. Looking forward, he envisions mass adoption of crypto, where buying everyday items with digital currency becomes commonplace, and encourages those interested in crypto compliance to embrace the dynamic and evolving landscape.
