Through this collaboration, YAX has implemented Solidus HALO Transaction Monitoring, a crypto-native behavioural-analytics solution that provides unified oversight across onchain and offchain activities. The platform enables YAX’s compliance team to detect and investigate sophisticated, multi-layered fraud schemes and money-mule networks—typologies increasingly prevalent in digital-asset markets—while ensuring adherence to Hong Kong’s AML/CFT obligations.
“Ensuring that YAX meets the HKSFC’s AML and transaction-monitoring standards is a cornerstone of our compliance framework,” said Hugo Wong, Head of Compliance at YAX. “We chose Solidus Labs because of their deep understanding of crypto market behaviors and their ability to detect risk across both onchain and offchain environments. Their behavioral-based monitoring provides the level of sophistication necessary to identify complex fraud patterns and safeguard our users in Hong Kong’s regulated digital-asset ecosystem.”
Justin Lin, Director of Customer Success, APAC at Solidus Labs, added: “Solidus Labs’ platform delivers seamless onchain and offchain behavioural detection, enabling unified oversight of crypto-fiat flows and sophisticated fraud schemes specific to digital-asset markets. Our collaboration with YAX, backed by Tiger Brokers, reflects the important shift toward crypto-native transaction monitoring that meets the HK SFC’s expectations for licensed VATPs.”
Solidus HALO empowers compliance teams to analyze suspicious crypto and crypto–fiat transactions for money laundering, fraud, and financial crime by synthesizing numerous onchain and offchain risk signals — all within a single platform at the click of a button.
Future-proofing its compliance program, YAX is adopting crypto-native transaction-monitoring algorithms designed to protect users from a range of emerging crypto-specific risks, ensuring the platform remains resilient as market typologies evolve.
