Our take
Increased accessibility to blockchain technology enables financial institutions to provide cryptocurrency services to their customers, but maintaining compliance can be difficult. Different jurisdictions and their domestic regulators require companies to comply with different rules, but this is difficult without having access to blockchain address types and other missing data points.
Notabene provides compliance tools for businesses that facilitate cryptocurrency transactions, helping them to access the data they need to provide compliant blockchain products. This is achieved through tools that help the user to identify missing blockchain data from their counterparties and their crypto transactions, allowing them to apply necessary regulations within their products.
Typically, remaining crypto-compliant requires the expensive assistance of blockchain experts. Notabene recognizes the unaffordability of this for most businesses, which is where it presents its value. The company has seen significant funding, the latest of which will support expansion to bring secure, transparent, and compliant crypto payments to more financial institutions.
