Strengthening compliance could affect major cryptocurrencies.
IVIX announced a $60 million Series B funding led by OG Venture Partners, aimed at enhancing AI-based compliance to tackle cryptocurrency-related financial crimes.
This funding underscores the increasing focus on AI-driven compliance solutions to curb financial crime, impacting major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum across global markets.
The industry has historically reacted with increased AML/KYC requirements, especially following similar funding and compliance tool expansions from firms such as CipherTrace and Chainalysis. Currently, open-source forums have not shown notable developments stemming from this funding round.
According to CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin (BTC) trades at $115,226.72, reflecting a market cap of $2.29 trillion. Over the past 24 hours, BTC decreased by 2.63%, continuing a 7-day decline of 4.09%. Despite recent drops, Bitcoin saw a 9.90% rise over 90 days.
“In today’s ever-changing digital economy, IVIX is committed to helping combat financial crime by bringing compliance efforts into the digital age. We are thrilled to announce the addition of these talented experts who will play a critical role in expanding IVIX’s capabilities and delivering cutting-edge financial technology solutions.” — Matan Fattal, Co-Founder & CEO, IVIX
Did you know? IVIX’s R&D push in crypto compliance echoes historical funding trends. Past moves by CipherTrace and Chainalysis led to stricter regulations and increased adoption of compliance tools driving institutional confidence.
The Coincu research team suggests the increasing partnerships between compliance platforms and regulatory bodies may foster stricter oversight, potentially reducing illicit activity in the cryptocurrency space. As these tools become embedded in trading systems, it could spur wider institutional adoption.
