From the Team:
When Panther started there was no VASP license or regulatory pressure on DAOs.
Then Gibraltar legislation made it impossible to launch the protocol from there, which is where Panther Ventures and the Foundation are setup.
So we looked at UAE, and then saw they have draft VASP legislation which is outright repressive for anything privacy related, so the subsidiary setup there had to be wound down.
And then we were looking at BVI, but they’ve just introduced VASP legislation. When we say the legal compliance landscape is challenging it’s not rhetoric.
We are evaluating ways to launch the dApp and host the front end.

Can El Salvador be a country convenient for launching a panther?

We could think that some KYC usecases when accessing the protocol in order to prevent malicious funds entering the Panther ecosystem like what happened with Railgun and Tornado.
