摘要：In this paper, we examine sanctioned entities activity on the Bitcoin blockchain and find they use the same exchanges and these exchanges are affected differently by regulations. Higher legal system quality in the country of the exchange leads to increased inflows to exchanges, but lower outflows from exchanges. However, there is little affect when studying the legal system quality in the country of the regulatory change. Therefore, regulators need to think globally rather than locally when implementing cryptocurrency regulation.
