OKLink is also set to provide DigiFT with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) solutions through the partnership
Singapore, 3 November 2023 — DigiFT, the leading regulatory-compliant real-world asset (“RWA”) exchange, and OKLink, a global provider of Web3 on-chain data and compliance solutions, today announced strategic partnership to empower the accessibility of regulatory-compliant RWA on-chain . The two-fold partnership will see DigiFT offering OKLink Trust’s clients the option to subscribe to DigiFT’s issued regulatory-compliant RWA tokens via the OKLink Trust platform and at the same time, OKLink is set to provide its OnChain AML solution to enhance security of DigiFT’s on-chain data and on-chain Anti-Money Laundering (AML) controls.
Known for its commitment to bringing safe and reliable RWA assets on-chain, DigiFT has successfully issued several distinctive regulatory-compliant products to-date, including Ethereum Staking Token, US Treasury Token, Perpetual Bond Referenced Token, and Corporate Note Security Token.
As part of the partnership, eligible clients on the OKLink Trust platform can subscribe to regulatory-compliant RWA issued by DigiFT, like DigiFT’s U.S. Treasury Token (“DUST”), the first fully regulatory-compliant U.S. Treasury token issued on a public blockchain. Backed by a single U.S. Treasury note with a specific maturity date, DUST offers accredited and institutional investors an on-chain channel to invest in U.S. Treasuries, with the physical U.S. Treasuries custodised with a licensed broker-custodian in Singapore.
Additionally, the partnership also marks a significant milestone for OKLink’s expansion in Singapore. OKLink’s RegTech solution, Onchain AML, consists of two features — Know your Transaction (KYT) and Know Your Address (KYA). KYT leverages OKLink’s extensive database to establish connections between on-chain addresses and real-world entities, helping to monitor risky transactions and identify malicious addresses, triggering alerts to meet the compliance and risk management requirements of Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs). KYA, on the other hand, identifies, analyzes, assesses, and categorizes the risk types associated with on-chain addresses, assisting regulatory bodies in digital asset investigations and aiding businesses in preliminary risk assessment, thereby enhancing transparency in digital asset transactions. With the integration of Onchain AML, DigiFT is able to surveil high-risk transactions and suspicious addresses at scale, preventing the occurrence of illicit on-chain activities.
“The partnership with OKLink is one of significance for us as it showcases our commitment to enhance our anti-money laundering controls in line with the highest standards of regulatory compliance. The widespread adoption of digital assets is contingent on trust, and that can only be achieved if robust frameworks are in place to provide customers with the highest possible level of security,” said Henry Zhang, Founder & CEO of DigiFT. “As a regulatory-compliant RWA exchange, we are laser-focused on ensuring that our platform has all the necessary tools and capabilities to safeguard our customers’ assets. At the same time, we’re also using this opportunity to give customers of OKLink Trust access to regulatory-compliant tokenized real-world assets through the OKLink platform.”
Mr. Jeffrey Ren, the Chairman of the Board and CEO of OKG Technology Holdings Limited, stated, “We are delighted to have partnered with DigiFT, which demonstrates our commitment to serving the compliant digital asset industry. Singapore is a vital market for OKLink, and this collaboration signifies a significant step in this dynamic market, laying a solid foundation for our future business expansion. We look forward to working closely with DigiFT to enhance public confidence in the entire digital asset industry and drive positive developments within the sector.”

OKLink 将为 DigiFT 提供反洗钱 (AML) 解决方案
新加坡，2023 年 11 月 3 日 — 领先的合规真实世界资产（“RWA”）交易所DigiFT, 与全球Web3链上数据和合规解决方案供应商OKLink今天宣布建立战略合作伙伴关系，共同促进RWA合规落地发展。通过双方的合作，DigiFT 将为 OKLink Trust 的客户提供通过其平台认购 DigiFT 发行的合规RWA代币的途径，同时，OKLink 将提供其OnChain AML解决方案，以进一步增强 DigiFT 链上数据的安全性及链上反洗钱（AML）控制。
DigiFT致力于以合规方式，将安全可靠的RWA资产上链，迄今已成功发行了多种独具特色的合规产品，包括以太坊质押代币、美国国债代币、永续债券支持代币和公司票据证券型代币。
作为此次合作的一部分，OKLink Trust 平台上的合资格客户可以认购由 DigiFT 发行的合规RWA资产，例如 DigiFT美国国债代币（“DUST”），这是第一个在公链上发行的完全符合监管要求的美国国债代币。在具有特定到期日的单一美国国债的支持下，DUST 为经过认证的机构投资者及合格投资者提供了投资美国国债的链上渠道，实物美国国债由新加坡持牌托管商托管。
此外，此次合作也是OKLink拓展新加坡市场的重要里程碑。OKLink的RegTech（监管科技）解决方案OnChain AML包括KYT（Know your transaction）和KYA（Know your address）。KYT运用OKLink 庞大的数据库，将链上地址与现实世界建立关联，帮助监控链上的风险交易、识别恶意地址并生成警报，以满足数字资产服务商 (VASP) 的合规与风控需求。KYA则针对链上地址的风险类型进行识别、分析、测算和分类，协助监管机构进行数字资产调查，帮助企业初步筛查链上交易风险，从而提高数字资产交易的透明度。通过使用OKLink的OnChain AML产品，DigiFT能够高效监控高风险交易和可疑地址，防止不法链上活动的发生。
DigiFT创始人兼首席执行官Henry Zhang表示：“此次与OKLink的合作，彰显了我们符合最高监管合规标准的承诺，进一步提升反洗钱控制措施。数字资产的广泛采用取决于信任，而只有建立了强大框架，为客户提供最高水平的安全保障，才能实现这一目标。作为一家合规RWA交易所，我们专注于确保平台拥有所有必要的工具和能力，保障客户的资产安全。与此同时，OKLink Trust的客户也能借此机会，获得认购合规通证化RWA资产的途径。”
