It will help you understand how Veriscope Share works more easily.
3/ Veriscope Shares come into the picture after an Originator VASP (oVASP) where the transaction starts ๐ค posts attestation on the Shyft Network, and a relevant counterparty VASP proves they own the wallet address where the transaction is heading to ๐ฅ
4/ VASPs = crypto service providers!
Originator VASP (oVASP) = The crypto business whose customer has requested a withdrawal.
And the attestations contain user data that had been encrypted through a public key. ๐
5/ Think of attestation as a secret vault that consists of critical data that can only be unlocked by the oVASPsโ key ๐
Check below if you are wondering what Attestations are๐
6/ Once oVASP posts attestation on Shyft Network, relevant beneficiary VASP (bVASP) can share Address Proofs to prove they own the crypto wallet address.
bVASP = The crypto business where the customer is sending funds from oVASP.
7/ Now, the oVASP will first encrypt their user data through their public keyย ๐ย
And then, they will share the KYC template, signature data, and encrypted user KYC data with bVASP.
Signature data = key that counterparty VASP can use to encrypt their user dataย ๐
8/ Now, it's bVASP's turn to encrypt its user data with a public key.
After doing that, bVASP shares the encrypted user data & KYC template with the oVASP.
9/ oVASP now scans the information the bVASP has sent and conducts relevant checks like name screening ๐
After that, they can either accept the bVASP's request โ or reject it โ
If they reject the request, the process will end then & there.
10/ If oVASP accepts it, they will now have to send the relevant information along with the KYC template to bVASP.
So now, the ball is in the bVASP's court ๐
11/ bVASP now begins decoding the encrypted user data & conducts relevant checks like name screening.ย
If they find everything alright, they can accept oVASP's request โ ย
If not, they can reject it. โ
12/ If the bVASP rejects it, there will be no further steps & the process will end there.
But if the bVASP accepts oVASP's KYC template, they will have to send their user's KYC to the oVASP.
13/ Seeing that, the oVASP will process the withdrawal ๐ย
And with this, the oVASP to bVASP transaction will be recorded on-chain.
14/ Thatโs it for today, we will be back with another Veriscope campaign Twitter thread soon.ย
In the meantime, leave your comments below, in case if you have any & we will respond to them asap! ๐
1/ With 2022 almost at its end, now is a good time to know about crypto regulations worldwide, starting with Asia.
And it goes without saying Asia is a major player in the global #crypto market ๐
After all, Asia accounts for 43% of global crypto activity. ๐
2/ However, the regulatory landscape for #crypto in Asia is complex and varied, with different approaches taken by different countries.ย
For example, Japan ๐ฏ๐ต and South Korea ๐ฐ๐ท have heavily regulated the crypto industry and even legally recognize them.
3/ In contrast, some other countries in the region, such as China ๐จ๐ณ & Bangladesh ๐ง๐ฉ, have taken a stricter stance, banning cryptocurrencies altogether.ย
India ๐ฎ๐ณ, on the other hand, has adopted a โWait & Watchโ approach.
After BitLicense & a 2-year moratorium on PoW mining, New York State has come up with another proposed #crypto regulation. ๐
And according to many, it might impede the growth of the #blockchain industry in New York. โ ๏ธ
But state authorities believe otherwise.ย
In fact, they think this #regulations would only strengthen the industry. ๐ค
This time, The New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) has proposed a Virtual Currency License Assessment bill asking the state to collect fees from #crypto businesses. ๐ฐ
It's time to get to know about Shyft Discover & Veriscope Share! ๐
These two are integral parts of the Shyft Veriscope's Travel Rule infrastructure.
So, what's the exact role of Shyft Discover & Veriscope Share? ๐ค Let's see.
2) Shyft Discover enables VASPs (Read: #crypto businesses) to discover VASPs & do address attribution. ๐
All that VASPs require to search for their counterparty VASPs is a wallet address & Shyft Discover will auto-detect their counterparty VASP based on it.
