Crypto Payments

Crypto rails move value in minutes without banks or disputes: attractive mechanics wrapped in AML, licensing and volatility questions.

The two implementations

Compliant: licensed operators using custody/processing partners, chain-analytics screening (Travel Rule where applicable), instant conversion to fiat or stablecoin treasury. Offshore: direct wallets, minimal screening, regulatory arbitrage as the product. The gap between them is the gap between a payments feature and a business model. Affiliate programs paying commissions in crypto add the same duality — convenient for cross-border partners, dependent on both sides’ compliance posture.
