As the crypto markets pick up with increasing global interest in cryptocurrencies as the regulating authorities around the globe start cleaning up the murky waters that have been the crypto space in the past, EUCX has has been making great strides of its own.

The past week has been one with tremendous progress with with two new advisors joining EUCX, our meeting with the De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB),  a new coin listing and the launch of the EUCX token sale website.

On April 16th, we had a meeting with the De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB), which is the Central Bank of the Netherlands. We discussed the upcoming AML regulations and regulations for exchanges and how the crypto space needs to be cleaned for it to mature.

While other exchanges go out of their way to avoid regulatory oversight. We at EUCX do the opposite by actively complying with current financial laws on both a national and European level and seeking and staying in close discourse with regulators and the proper authorities.

In February 2019, EUCX founders were part of a delegation of the European Blockchain Foundation (EBF) to speak to members of the Dutch Parliament.

In March 2019, EUCX met with the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (Dutch: Autoriteit Financiële Markten). and De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB) in order to properly prepare for, and work together on, the upcoming regulatory framework (AML5) that will apply to cryptocurrency exchanges and brokers in Europe.
EUCX could be the first exchange to be granted a DNB permit before 2020.

Cryptocurrency in general is a revolutionary system, which has seen such unprecedented growth over the past few years, that it has left the lawmakers lagging behind.
We believe that by actively engaging with the governments, helping them understand the space, while at the same time guiding them in forming regulations, we can finally elevate cryptocurrencies to the level of a serious financial product and enable customers to hold exchanges and other such central brokers accountable for their activities.

This means that the end users would also need to abide by KYC in an attempt to counter money laundering while the exchanges would find it very hard to stay on the right side of the law if they engage in illicit trade practices like market manipulation, wash trading, money laundering etc.

It’s no surprise that blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are the future and are here to stay, and only with regulation and compliance would we weed out the rotten apples from the crypto space making it safer for everyone, once and for all.

The new laws will go into effect on January 1st, 2020.

Opening this thread in the necessary board will attract more attention by forum users. I have interested in this project and the pegged rate of ETH is not a big deal for me. Why did they decide to peg the ETH rate to 150 EUR in the presale?
