  Yes, there are regulations in place to address the issue of leaked crypto assets in the EU markets. The EU has implemented the Fifth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (5AMLD) which requires cryptocurrency exchanges and custodian wallet providers to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations. These regulations aim to prevent the use of cryptocurrencies for illicit activities and enhance the transparency of crypto transactions. Additionally, the EU is also working on a comprehensive regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies to ensure consumer protection and market integrity.
