Regens are individuals or organizations focused on regenerative practices that restore, renew, or revitalize their environments, often emphasizing sustainability and ecological health.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory compliance refers to the adherence of an organization to laws, regulations, guidelines, and specifications relevant to its business processes. Ensuring regulatory compliance helps companies avoid legal penalties, financial forfeiture, and damage to their reputation. It involves implementing internal policies, procedures, and controls to meet the required standards set by governing bodies and industry-specific regulations.

Rehypothecation

Rehypothecation is a financial practice where banks or brokers use assets that have been posted as collateral by their clients for their own purposes, such as securing their own borrowing or other financial activities. This can create a chain of obligations and risks, as the same collateral can be pledged multiple times, potentially leading to complex financial exposures.

Replay Attack

A Replay Attack is a type of network security breach where an attacker intercepts and captures a valid data transmission, then fraudulently delays or resends it to trick the recipient into unauthorized actions. This can compromise the integrity and confidentiality of the communication, as the attacker can gain access to sensitive information or perform unauthorized transactions. Replay attacks are often mitigated through the use of timestamps, sequence numbers, or cryptographic techniques to ensure the authenticity and freshness of the transmitted data.

Restaking

Restaking is the process of re-delegating staked assets to a different validator or staking pool to optimize rewards or adjust risk exposure.

Roll-over fee

A roll-over fee is a charge imposed by financial institutions or brokers when an investor extends the settlement date of an open position in the financial markets. This fee is typically associated with forex trading, where positions are held overnight. The roll-over fee compensates for the interest rate differential between the two currencies involved in the trade. It can either be a cost or a credit, depending on the interest rates of the respective currencies.

Ryuk Ransomware

Ryuk Ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to encrypt files on a victim's system, demanding a ransom payment in cryptocurrency for the decryption key.
