The list of risk assessments includes Technical Design and Technology Risk, Cybersecurity Risk, Operational Risk, Illicit Finance Risk, and Market Liquidity Risk.<h2 id="nydsfs-vision-for-a-regulated-new-york">NYDSF&rsquo;s vision for a regulated New York&nbsp;</h2>Since 2015, the NYDSF has <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/new-york-financial-regulator-adopts-assessment-rule-for-crypto-companies-heres-what-you-need-know.htm">served as a key regulator</a> in the New York financial markets after it issued its cryptocurrency<a href="https://govt.westlaw.com/nycrr/Browse/Home/NewYork/NewYorkCodesRulesandRegulations?guid=I7444ce80169611e594630000845b8d3e&amp;originationContext=documenttoc&amp;transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=(sc.Default)&amp;bhcp=1"> regulation.</a>Cryptocurrency firms in New York are required to acquire a BitLicense from the regulator and have so far issued more than 30 licenses with eToro being the latest firm.Digital assets in the greenlist include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and a slew of stablecoins. The regulator has highlighted regulatory scrutiny among firms including enforcing sanctions.In the last two years, it has issued $132 million in fines to exchanges including its first penalties against Robinhood and Coinbase.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://twitter.com/cryptonews/status/1620091964585656320?s=46&amp;t=sCvh3f3rMDfXyJcf1y1Eyg"></oembed></figure>
