IMPACTO DAS REGULAÇÕES SOBRE A PREVENÇÃO À LAVAGEM DE DINHEIRO E FINANCIAMENTO AO TERRORISMO EM APOSTAS ESPORTIVAS E CRIPTOATIVOS

This study analyzes the impact of regulations aimed at preventing money laundering
and terrorist financing on sports betting and cryptoactive activities. With technological
progress, the use of these digital assets and betting platforms has intensified,
presenting regulatory challenges due to anonymity and decentralization. The general
objective was to analyze how new regulations interfere in activities, reducing the
associated risks. The qualitative methodology consisted of a documentary and
bibliographic review, in addition to a hypothetical-deductive analysis to validate the
hypotheses formulated. The results showed that regulations such as the "Travel
Rule" of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and Law nº. 14,790/2023 in Brazil
represent significant progress, as they promote greater transparency and monitoring
of financial transactions. However, the effectiveness of standards still depends on
strong international cooperation and the use of advanced supervisory technologies.
Emerging regulations are critical to addressing financial crimes but require
improvements to address constant innovation and regulatory arbitrage in more
flexible jurisdictions.
