Cryptocurrency backers have long argued for the necessity and relevance of digital assets. Inflation-proof, no central banks to report to, unburdened by regulation, financial inclusion, and innovative technology. But there is a seedy side to crypto due to anonymity and its underground nature that has facilitated money laundering, OFAC sanctions evasion, scams and frauds. In this episode of Integro Talks, we speak to two experts, Willie Rondon, a former law enforcement investigator, and Brennan Long, a former Navy intelligence officer, about the complex dynamics of digital assets, regulatory challenges, the rapid the growth of decentralized finance (DeFi), and the essential compliance measures aimed at preventing illegal transactions.
We also examine global efforts to establish robust AML and KYC standards,, emphasizing the role of technology in monitoring and compliance across fintech startups and traditional financial institutions.
Join us for a comprehensive discussion on navigating the evolving crypto landscape, highlighting the importance of adaptation and training across sectors to effectively manage digital assets.
