UVKXE Clarification Statement: A Legally Compliant Trading Platform with International Accreditation
DENVER — Recently, the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) published a list on its official website of cryptocurrency trading platforms that have not met its local registration requirements, mentioning UVKXE. UVKXE takes this matter seriously and wishes to clarify its credentials and compliance status to its users.
Global Compliance Credentials of UVKXE
UVKXE is committed to operating under legal and compliant principles, upholding a user-first core value. The platform has obtained several certifications from international authoritative regulatory bodies, including but not limited to:
U.S. MSB License
UVKXE has obtained the MSB license issued by the U.S. FinCEN. This certification represents the highest recognition by the U.S. government for financial service institutions, ensuring that UVKXE can legally conduct cryptocurrency-related business.
U.S. SEC License

DENVER — Recently, the globally recognized cryptocurrency trading platform UVKXE officially announced the completion of its latest security system upgrade. This upgrade significantly enhances the cybersecurity defenses of the platform and introduces cutting-edge anti-scam technologies. Through this technological update, UVKXE demonstrates its commitment to user asset security and proactive measures against potential future cyber threats.
Kevin Anderson, CEO of UVKXE, stated: “User trust is the foundation of UVKXE, and ensuring the security of user assets is always our top priority.
