10. ⚖ Regulatory Risk & Compliance

Legal Status in Cambodia

KhamboCoin (KHAMBO) is designed as a utility token for micropayments, rewards, and digital commerce. It is not legal tender and is not intended to replace the Cambodian riel (KHR) or the National Bank of Cambodia’s Bakong system. All official financial reporting and settlement remain denominated in the riel.

Potential Risks

  1. Regulatory Scrutiny – The National Bank of Cambodia (NBC) strictly regulates payment systems. If KhamboCoin is perceived as competing with official currency, it could face restrictions.

  2. Unlicensed Activities – Tokens promoted as investment vehicles without licenses could fall under securities regulations.

  3. Cross-Border Risks – Use outside Cambodia may trigger compliance requirements in other jurisdictions.

Mitigation Strategy

  • Utility Token Framework – KHAMBO is positioned as a micropayment and reward token, not an alternative national currency.

  • Merchant Partnerships – Transactions are voluntary, transparent, and aimed at supporting SMEs and digital adoption.

  • Riel Alignment – KhamboCoin encourages dual reporting in KHAMBO + KHR to ensure compatibility with the national currency.

  • Compliance Monitoring – The project will continuously monitor NBC guidelines, fintech sandbox updates, and international regulations.

  • Community Transparency – Open reporting on token allocation, vesting schedules, and usage to build trust with users and regulators.
