Part-4(1)

1/ After Address Proofs does its job, which is enabling VASPs (read: crypto businesses) to determine who controls the wallet address, it's time for user data exchange.

Tap below if you missed our 🧵 On Address Proofs👇

2/ Facilitating user data exchange between VASPs - this is exactly what Shyft Veriscope is meant to do 🪢

It is, after all, Shyft's Travel Rule data-sharing product! 💡
3/ And the beauty of Shyft Veriscope is that it:

✅ Easily fits into the existing workflow of VASPs.
✅ Allows VASPs to share user data under IVMS format.
✅ Makes accepting/rejecting counterparty VASP messages possible.
4/ Shyft Veriscope is very secure! It is HTTPs-based and all the payloads are encrypted. 

Encryption basically means hiding the information through special code in a way that no one other than the intended party can access it.🔒
5/ Data exchange between VASPs using Veriscope happens off-chain. 

✅ All data exchange between VASPs using Veriscope is P2P. 
✅ No middleman is involved. 
✅ Shyft or Veriscope has no way of knowing about the data transfers between VASPs.
That's it for today. Comment below with your questions, if any. 👋

We will answer them asap.

Starting from where we left off - Veriscope User Data Exchange.

Case-3: oVASP shares both originator & beneficiary data with the bVASP

🚨 In this case, the same issues that we saw in case -2 yesterday may crop up here as well. 

Check 👇
2/ 🚨 Resultantly, bVASP will reject the #crypto transaction due to an information mismatch. 

Once the transaction is rejected, oVASP will inform the originator 📩

And then, quite naturally, the originator will take this up with the beneficiary.
3/ ⚠️ This will cause friction between the originator & beneficiary!

Frustrated by the failed transaction, the originator may then escalate the matter to oVASP’s customer support 📞💥

This puts a strain on oVASP customer support capacity.

Previously we discussed how Shyft Veriscope enables VASPs (read: #crypto businesses) to share user data securely.

Today, we will talk about how and why, outside Shyft Veriscope, the approach of facilitating user data between VASPs isn’t up to mark.
2/ However, we will discuss it in two parts.

Where do we start?

Straight from the fact that the current state of Travel Rule compliance is sub-optimal at best.

Why?

❌ Wrongful interpretation of FATF recommendations
3/ This leads to:

❌ Significant data privacy & security risks
❌ Higher chance of fraud
❌ Decreased operational efficiency

Now, let’s look at the issues one-by-one! 👀

This week, we already covered #Shyft Discover's Know Your VASP capability. 

And today, we will look into how Shyft Discover solves the address attribution problem. 👀
2/ If you have been with us since day 1 of the Veriscope campaign, you will know we looked into the basics of address attribution in the early days of the campaign. 

If not, visit our previous 🧵 on address attribution below👇

3/ Address attribution basically means accurately verifying the beneficiary VASP’s wallet address 🔎

Why is it important❓👇🏼

It enables VASPs (read = #crypto businesses) to verify whether the counterparty VASP is indeed the correct party or not.

But, for this week, we will focus on problems Shyft Discover solves and how it does it.

Let's go! 🚶‍♂️
3/ Shyft Discover solves two problems:

1/ Paraguay's legislature 🇵🇾 has failed to reverse President Mario Abdo Benitez's veto on the crypto regulation bill. 📜

Let's start by turning the clock ⏰ a bit backward to know the chain of events here.
2/ The Senate initially greenlighted the crypto regulation bill in December 2021 🗓 & it moved to the President's desk for his signature. ✍️

The aim was to create a #crypto regulatory framework in the country. 🇵🇾
3/ However, President Benitez vetoed it. Why? 🤔 

He cited #crypto mining’s high energy consumption ⚡ & its probable impact on the sustainable growth of the country's industrial capacity. 🏭
