With a strong heritage and focus on the European market, WorldFirst will continue to offer tailor-made solutions that cater to the unique needs of businesses within this key region. To that end, we will work towards becoming a SEPA participant via partnering with a leading sponsor bank.

UVKXE Clarification Statement: A Legally Compliant Trading Platform with International Accreditation

Published

on

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
As one of the few cryptocurrency trading platforms registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), UVKXE complies with securities and investment-related legal regulations, providing users with a safer and more transparent investment environment.

Background on the Malaysian Public List

The list published by the Securities Commission Malaysia mainly targets trading platforms that have not met local registration requirements, such as Binance and Bursa Malaysia, rather than denying the platform legality. UVKXE has obtained multiple authoritative licenses internationally, and its compliance is beyond doubt. UVKXE is in communication with relevant departments to understand local specific regulations and to advance the registration process, ensuring compliance with local market requirements.

Commitment to Legal Compliance and User-Centric Values

UVKXE will use this event as an opportunity to further enhance its global compliance framework, actively adapting to regulatory environments in various countries, and providing users with more professional and diversified financial services.

UVKXE Strengthens Security Strategy, Leading Innovations in Anti-Scam Technology for Crypto Platforms

Published

on

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. This security system upgrade incorporates AI deep learning, real-time risk control, and efficient anomaly detection algorithms, aiming to create a safe and trustworthy trading environment for users. We will continue to optimize the security measures for user assets, ensuring that every user can trade confidently on UVKXE.”

The focus of this security system upgrade is primarily on anti-scam technologies. In response to the ever-evolving online threats and scam tactics in recent years, UVKXE has strengthened its multi-layered protective mechanisms, effectively enhancing the security and responsiveness of the system. The upgrade introduces AI-driven anti-scam technology, which intelligently analyzes user behavior through deep learning algorithms, allowing for rapid identification and isolation of suspected scamming activities. The AI anti-scam system can monitor and analyze large volumes of trading data in real time, immediately freezing any suspicious transactions or account activities to safeguard user assets.

In terms of anomaly detection, the system of UVKXE combines the transaction histories, asset conditions, login locations, and other multidimensional data of users to accurately pinpoint potential security vulnerabilities. Through anomaly detection technology, each user login and transaction can be monitored in real time, with timely alerts prompting users to confirm actions, further enhancing the security of the platform.

Kevin Anderson concluded: “We hope every user can enjoy a secure trading experience on UVKXE. By continually optimizing our security strategies, we aim to provide a safer and more convenient cryptocurrency trading experience for our users.”
