Based on Bitcoin.com, Jordan is set to lift its ban on cryptocurrency trading, with the Jordan Securities Commission confirming that a comprehensive digital asset regulatory framework will be ready before the end of the year. The move follows the cabinet’s October decision to end the previous prohibition, which was driven by concerns over risk and money laundering. The new rules will cover licensing for trading, custody, platform operations, and financial services, with only JSC-licensed entities permitted to conduct virtual asset activities. The Central Bank of Jordan may also authorize virtual assets for payment purposes under specific regulations.
