Italy is getting ready to tighten its oversight of crypto assets with strict rules to stop market abuse. A new proposed law could soon bring hefty fines ranging from 5,000 to 5 million euros for things like insider trading, illegally sharing secret information, and manipulating cryptocurrency markets. 
This comes as worries about the risks of digital currencies grow worldwide. Global organizations and central banks have warned that cryptocurrencies don’t have a stable value and could cause economic problems. Cases of fraud involving cryptocurrencies have also sparked concerns around the globe. 
Italy’s <a href="https://www.reuters.com/technology/italy-boosts-crypto-risk-oversight-toughens-sanctions-draft-shows-2024-06-20/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">plan</a> follows a European rule from last year that gives its central bank and financial regulator, Consob, the job of ensuring markets work well and are financially safe. 
Cryptocurrencies work outside regular banks, letting people move money globally using blockchain technology. This tech keeps transactions safe by using unique digital wallet addresses of letters and numbers. 
Italy’s move to crack down on crypto market tricks shows a wider trend of countries making rules to control cryptocurrencies more tightly. By punishing market manipulation and other wrongs with big fines, Italy aims to protect investors and keep financial markets honest. This reflects a global effort to carefully manage cryptocurrencies’ risks and benefits.
