\u201cThe Shyft Network team provides a unique approach in working hand-in-hand with international governments and regulatory bodies–in concert with the network\u2019s established, open-source technology–we believe it is the right solution for ongoing regulatory compliance,” he added.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The Shyft Network is a protocol that transfers information between both private and public blockchain networks. It is based on the popular Ethereum blockchain making it easier to onboard other similarly-based Ethereum ERC-20 tokens and protocols.<\/p>\n
However, as evidenced by the partnership with Binance, it is not necessarily only designed to serve Ethereum-based networks. Binance currently runs on its proprietary blockchain network \u2013 the Binance Chain. Basically, whatever network on which a transaction is done, it should be able to relay the PII information together with the transaction details to regulators.<\/p>\n
Shyft\u2019s chief advisor and former FATF executive secretary Rick McDonell has previously said that the partnership between the VASPs and the regulators \u201cshould help to move the blockchain industry to the next level when it comes to effectively interfacing with regulators.\u201d McDonell advises other exchanges and VASPs to be part of the Network and work in tandem with the FATF to curb money laundering.<\/p>\n
