SEBI's move targets the Wild West of high-frequency trading, where quants have been printing money while regulators played catch-up. About damn time.

New capital requirements? Stricter reporting? The traditional middlemen might need to actually innovate for once—or watch their lunch get eaten by DeFi protocols.
