  Yes, federal reference numbers are required for cryptocurrency exchanges to operate legally. These numbers are used to track and regulate transactions, ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering and know-your-customer regulations. Without a federal reference number, exchanges may face legal consequences and could be shut down by regulatory authorities.

  No, federal reference numbers are not required for cryptocurrency exchanges. While some countries have implemented regulations and require exchanges to obtain licenses, the specific requirements vary. It's important for exchanges to research and comply with the regulations in the jurisdictions they operate in to ensure legal operation.
