Watch: Jaguar-Adva Gal navigates the regulatory crossroads of Gaming, Crypto, and AI

Written by Rami Gabriel

At AIBC Eurasia 2025, Jaguar-Adva Gal, CEO of Jaguar Lawyers, delivered sharp insight into the evolving regulatory maze confronting high-risk industries. Speaking from the heart of the summit during an interview with SiGMA Group, Gal underscored what industry professionals have long grappled with: regulatory fragmentation, operational uncertainty, and the rising need for agile compliance strategies.

Gal’s firm, Jaguar Lawyers, is at the frontline of licensing, international tax structuring, and banking advisory for sectors often under intense scrutiny, such as gaming, crypto, fintech, and increasingly, AI. Her message was clear: regulation in these verticals isn’t just shifting; it’s colliding. With jurisdictions moving at different speeds and interpretations often clashing, Gal cautioned that businesses must manage compliance as an active, dynamic process, not a one-time milestone.

“In practice, the challenge isn’t just meeting requirements; it’s navigating the contradictions between them,” Gal noted. “A company may be fully compliant with gaming laws in one jurisdiction, only to find that its crypto payment structure violates rules elsewhere. Add AI regulation into the mix, and complexity escalates.”

Adapting to evolving regulatory dynamics

While the compliance burden is real, Gal sees momentum in a more constructive direction. A global recalibration, spurred by geopolitical developments and economic strategy, is pushing some regulators toward a more enabling stance. This includes the emergence of more business-friendly tax frameworks and licensing regimes in jurisdictions such as Dubai, Malta, and Cyprus.

Gal also highlighted the sector’s maturity: “Where once these industries were seen as volatile outliers, today we’re seeing institutional behaviour and judicial frameworks catching up, whether through litigation, precedent, or targeted reforms.” In a climate where regulation has become a strategic variable, Jaguar Lawyers provides clients with jurisdictional agility, working across five regulatory regions to mitigate risk and secure operational viability.

As the regulatory scaffolding around gaming, crypto and AI continues to take shape, businesses will need legal partners who not only interpret rules but anticipate their ripple effects.
