This expansion includes esteemed entities such as Baanx, Coinpass, Fidelity Digital UK, Gemini UK, Kraken UK, Paysafe/Skrill, and Revolut.

TRUST has been meticulously designed as a comprehensive global solution to ensure compliance with the Travel Rule. Adapting to the diverse Travel Rule requisites across jurisdictions, TRUST is engineered with remarkable flexibility while safeguarding customers’ privacy and security with the following paramount measures:
- Decentralized storage of personal data: Sensitive customer information is never stored centrally, eliminating vulnerabilities to third-party misuse or targeted breaches. The requisite data is securely transmitted directly from one TRUST member to another, employing end-to-end encryption for enhanced protection.
- Verification of address ownership: TRUST incorporates a mechanism enabling the recipient VASP to validate the request of the receiving cryptocurrency address before sharing customer data. This verification process ensures that accurate information is transferred to the correct VASP.
- Upholding core security and privacy standards: TRUST mandates that all participating members adhere to fundamental anti-money laundering, sanctions, safety, and privacy prerequisites prior to joining this innovative solution.
