Binance Partners with Coinfirm to Protect the Global Cryptocurrency Economy and Ensure Compliance with FATF AML Rules.

Binance will integrate Coinfirm’s blockchain-agnostic AML Platform to its cryptocurrency exchange servicing users in over 180 countries and regions for ensuring secure trading for its customers and compliance with the FATF’s guidelines to cryptocurrency exchanges around the world.

At least CipherTrace lost their bid. That's the only good thing I can say about this.

My question is, when is Coinfirm's system being implemented? Hardly any country -- let alone Malta -- has begun complying with FATF travel rule. Is Binance planning to apply the rule before it even becomes the law of the land? That doesn't seem like something Binance would do.

The $1,000 threshold is pretty scary.

Definitely not, they will want to (and do their best) to delay implementation until the last minute. Do they alert users when such tech starts being used or is that not a necessary disclosure for them to make?..

Its already implemented

This is a better move than delisting privacy coins like what some Korean exchanges did I guess. The downside is that some users might feel uncomfortable that their address is being monitored 24/7.

What is the issue with CipherTrace?

DARPA originated project, doesnt care much about crypto, doesnt get AML...
