(Context: Crackdown on fraud: Internet 'real-name system' for advertising will be implemented on New Year's Day, and the Financial Supervisory Commission: VASP registration system will be launched by the end of the year.) Domestic supervision has raised the standards for preventing money laundering and terrorism financing. According to the latest announcement from the Financial Supervisory Commission, both MaiCoin (Modern Wealth Technology) and BitoPro (CoinTrust Technology) have been fined NT$1.5 million for violating anti-money laundering laws. The main reasons for the penalties imposed on these two exchanges include failure to strengthen customer review, lack of understanding of the source of customer wealth, failure to preserve customer transaction data, and inability to fully grasp the patterns of money laundering and terrorism financing transactions, among other violations of anti-money laundering laws. Since the Financial Supervisory Commission began conducting inspections of exchanges for money laundering and terrorism financing in 2023, the accumulated fines for the current operators are as follows: Wangpai Digital NT$1.52 million, Modern Wealth NT$1.5 million, CoinTrust NT$1.5 million, and CoinRadiant NT$1.02 million. Among them, CoinTrust was fined. In response to the FSC's announcement of the inspection administrative penalties today (11/26), we thank the competent authority for its guidance. We are deeply aware of the significant responsibility of leading the industry's sound development. Therefore, for the items of deficiency, we have immediately formed a special project team and implemented specific improvement plans, established more rigorous internal audit and control processes, strengthened internal education and training, and enhanced the awareness of compliance among all employees. We are also willing to share our compliance experience with other operators, hoping to create a safer and more transparent investment environment. We firmly believe that compliance is the cornerstone of the development of the virtual currency industry. In addition to actively improving internal compliance operations, in the future, we will continue to cooperate with competent authorities and partners from all walks of life, and continually invest resources in risk control, information security, technological innovation, and other aspects, to bring about more positive and compliant development in the virtual currency industry.
