"one of the most regulated exchanges in the world"

Is this sarcasm?

They meant one of the most regulated cryptocurrency exchanges. I don't think that's sarcastic. Try to cite a few that are significantly more regulated.

I don't think the statement is fair/correct because we don't know whether it is regulated well/properly at all. We have nothing to compare/benchmark basically, so why call it the "most regulated" one?

Implicit in the statement is that this is relative, by the extremely low standard of bitcoin exchanges.
