Interpreted Prediction
DeFi front-end operators, including those with fee-collecting DAOs, may be classified as registrants.
AI Evaluation Notes
The prediction aligns with the IRS's final regulations (TD 10021) released in late 2024, which classify DeFi front-end operators as brokers if they maintain control or operate a fee-collecting DAO. These operators are now required to implement KYC procedures and report customer transactions, with the reporting obligations beginning on January 1, 2027.
