As a Merkle Science enterprise client that supports and enhances Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance standards, BitDATA Exchange adheres to the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) regulations to facilitate buying or selling digital payment tokens, or DPTs (commonly known as cryptocurrencies.) BitDATA is also authorized to provide a platform that enables the exchange of DPTs under Singapore’s Payment Services Act.

Since 2020, BitDATA Exchange has been granted an exemption from holding a license under the PS Act for providing digital payment token services by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). In accordance with MAS’s guidelines, BitDATA has established a monitoring system and policies to combat any unusual or fraudulent activities on its trading platform. This monitoring system is Compass, Merkle Science’s next-generation blockchain transaction monitoring solution that combines the best of traditional monitoring methodologies with behavior-based rules, to achieve a new level of security, transparency, and compliance.

Mriganka Pattnaik, CEO & Co-founder at Merkle Science, added: “It’s incredible to work with a company that recognizes the importance of compliance in advancing cryptocurrency exchange technology, as well as the key role that fraud prevention plays in positive user experience. Ultimately, our goal is to empower innovators like BitDATA Exchange so that all of their users can enjoy a safe trading environment.”
