In this conversation, OpnState shares his journey from a disillusioned banker to a policy advisor focused on compliance and anti-money laundering (AML) laws. He discusses the complexities of financial regulations, the erosion of individual rights, and the impact of global standard-setting bodies like the FATF on national sovereignty. OpnState emphasizes the presumption of guilt in financial transactions and the challenges posed by compliance culture, while also addressing the future of self-hosted wallets and the potential for pushback against globalist interests.  Stephan & OpnState also discuss the dangers of delegating self-sovereignty to political figures and the compliance mindset that has permeated society. There is a need to explore cultural change, legal and political paths to challenge the FATF, and the importance of creating alternative systems; this could be achieved through individual responsibility.

De nieuwe antiwitwas-regels vanuit de Europese Unie schenden mensenrechten, terwijl toezichthouders en de politiek wegkijken óf daaraan meedoen. Bij ons te gast is Simon Lelieveldt, expert financiële regelgeving en onderdeel van de stichting Human Rights in Finance. Met Simon lopen we door de belangrijkste nieuwe wetten heen, die vanuit Europa de komende tijd van kracht worden. Allereerst de Travel Rule, of TFR. Simon en de stichting HRIF probeerden via een annuleringsprocedure een stokje voor deze nieuwe maatregel te steken, maar dat mislukte. Tegelijk zien we dat veel bedrijven zich eigenlijk al houden aan die Travel Rule. Als jij crypto ontvangt of wil verzenden, moet je in veel gevallen speciferen waar naar toe, en met welk doel. Dan de nog iets nieuwere AMLR, een vervolg op de anti-witwasrichtlijn die in zijn Nederlandse vorm medio 2020 voor veel ophef zorgde. Daar wringt de schoen op verschillende dossiers. Niet alleen is er volgens Simon niet stilgestaan bij de mensenrechtentoets (op basis van de AMLD5), ook is dit vervolg in rap tempo door de Europees wetgevingsproces gevlogen. Verschillende activisten proberen zich hiertegen te verzetten, bijvoorbeeld met een annuleringsprocedure. Een ander gevolg van de introductie van de AMLR is dat Transactie Monitoring Nederland (TMNL) plots op losse schroeven kwam te staan. Het bedrijf werd door vijf grote banken opgezet om op die manier samen hun witwascontroles te kunnen doen. Toezichthouder DNB stond achter dit plan. Simon waarschuwde in Cryptocast 316 al voor dit monitoringsapparaat. Inmiddels hebben de banken zelf de stekker uit TMNL gestoken, maar daarmee is voor Simon de kous nog niet af. Hij wil via een rechtszaak toezichthouder DNB dwingen tot handhaven, want TMNL had nooit mogen bestaan. Co-host is Daniël Mol.

Crypto Update: Correctie van Bitcoin lijkt binnen enkele dagen alweer voorbij

Bitcoin belandde deze week in een correctie. De daling in prijs begon even snel als hij weer over was, want woensdag steeg bitcoin met zo'n 7% terug naar 67.000 dollar. Het laat zien dat Bitcoin de laatste weken wel héél snel was afgelopen, maar dat er tegelijkertijd nog altijd veel kopers op de markt zijn. Bovendien is er met de aankomende halving in april nog genoeg om naar uit te kijken. Waar die correctie dan precies vandaan komt blijft onduidelijk. De Amerikaanse ETF's noteerden drie dagen van netto-uitstroom, waarbij er natuurlijk vooral bij het product van Grayscale veel verkopen werden genoteerd. Ook de inflatiecijfers vielen iets tegen, maar niet genoeg om hele grote bewegingen om de markt te forceren. Het blijft gissen, zullen we maar zeggen. Volgende week krijgt Sam Bankman-Fried, de topman van de ingestorte beurs FTX, zijn vonnis te horen. Justitie denkt daarbij aan een gevangenisstraf van tussen de 40 en 50 jaar, waarop de verdediging van SBF geschokt reageerde. Zij wijzen erop dat Sam nog jong is, geen intentie had om kwaad te doen en zijn capaciteiten beter kan gebruiken als hij niet achter de tralies zit. Zij zien liever een straf van een jaar of zes. De rechter wordt ondertussen bestookt met allerlei pleidooien, want dit is zo ongeveer het laatste moment om daadwerkelijk impact te maken op de toekomst van Sam Bankman-Fried. En de Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC ging deze week nat in een zaak tegen Debt Box, een bedrijf dat klanten helpt geld te verdienen met mining. Debt Box werd beschuldigd van het bedriegen van zijn investeerders en zou daarna naar de Emiraten zijn gevlucht. Van dat alles bleek er weinig te kloppen en de rechter concludeert dat de SEC in kwade trouw gehandeld heeft, de rechtbank heeft misleid en hun macht hebben misbruikt. Debt Box krijgt de proceskosten terug van de SEC, maar lijkt vooralsnog niet op een schadevergoeding te kunnen rekenen. Deze week in de Cryptocast Simon Lelieveldt, oprichter van de Stichting Human Rights in Finance. Hij vindt dat allerlei geldende financiële regelgeving in strijd is met mensenrechten. Bijvoorbeeld de Travel Rule die financiële instellingen verplicht persoonlijke data mee te sturen met transacties en de antiwitwasregels die eisen dat ‘ongebruikelijke transacties' moeten worden onderzocht. De rechten die worden geschonden zijn bijvoorbeeld recht op privacy en recht op eigendom. Tussen de bedrijven door beschuldigt hij banken van kartelvorming en van schenden van de wet ter voorkoming van witwassen en financiering van terrorisme, de Wwft. Allemaal onderbouwd he. Pittige kost, maar toch ook om je vingers bij af te likken. Snel herstel cryptomarkt SEC krijgt draai om oren Welke straf krijgt SBF?

Crypto Update: Correctie van Bitcoin lijkt binnen enkele dagen alweer voorbij

Bitcoin belandde deze week in een correctie. De daling in prijs begon even snel als hij weer over was, want woensdag steeg bitcoin met zo'n 7% terug naar 67.000 dollar. Het laat zien dat Bitcoin de laatste weken wel héél snel was afgelopen, maar dat er tegelijkertijd nog altijd veel kopers op de markt zijn. Bovendien is er met de aankomende halving in april nog genoeg om naar uit te kijken. Waar die correctie dan precies vandaan komt blijft onduidelijk. De Amerikaanse ETF's noteerden drie dagen van netto-uitstroom, waarbij er natuurlijk vooral bij het product van Grayscale veel verkopen werden genoteerd. Ook de inflatiecijfers vielen iets tegen, maar niet genoeg om hele grote bewegingen om de markt te forceren. Het blijft gissen, zullen we maar zeggen. Volgende week krijgt Sam Bankman-Fried, de topman van de ingestorte beurs FTX, zijn vonnis te horen. Justitie denkt daarbij aan een gevangenisstraf van tussen de 40 en 50 jaar, waarop de verdediging van SBF geschokt reageerde. Zij wijzen erop dat Sam nog jong is, geen intentie had om kwaad te doen en zijn capaciteiten beter kan gebruiken als hij niet achter de tralies zit. Zij zien liever een straf van een jaar of zes. De rechter wordt ondertussen bestookt met allerlei pleidooien, want dit is zo ongeveer het laatste moment om daadwerkelijk impact te maken op de toekomst van Sam Bankman-Fried. En de Amerikaanse beurswaakhond SEC ging deze week nat in een zaak tegen Debt Box, een bedrijf dat klanten helpt geld te verdienen met mining. Debt Box werd beschuldigd van het bedriegen van zijn investeerders en zou daarna naar de Emiraten zijn gevlucht. Van dat alles bleek er weinig te kloppen en de rechter concludeert dat de SEC in kwade trouw gehandeld heeft, de rechtbank heeft misleid en hun macht hebben misbruikt. Debt Box krijgt de proceskosten terug van de SEC, maar lijkt vooralsnog niet op een schadevergoeding te kunnen rekenen. Deze week in de Cryptocast Simon Lelieveldt, oprichter van de Stichting Human Rights in Finance. Hij vindt dat allerlei geldende financiële regelgeving in strijd is met mensenrechten. Bijvoorbeeld de Travel Rule die financiële instellingen verplicht persoonlijke data mee te sturen met transacties en de antiwitwasregels die eisen dat ‘ongebruikelijke transacties' moeten worden onderzocht. De rechten die worden geschonden zijn bijvoorbeeld recht op privacy en recht op eigendom. Tussen de bedrijven door beschuldigt hij banken van kartelvorming en van schenden van de wet ter voorkoming van witwassen en financiering van terrorisme, de Wwft. Allemaal onderbouwd he. Pittige kost, maar toch ook om je vingers bij af te likken. Snel herstel cryptomarkt SEC krijgt draai om oren Welke straf krijgt SBF?

At the end of June 2023, the Financial Action Task Force released its fourth “Targeted Update on Implementation of FATF's Standards on VAs and VASPs.” The report surveyed 151 jurisdictions to find out what they have done to comply with the FATF Recommendations on virtual assets. According to FATF, 75% of jurisdictions that have made changes to their regimes have only done so to a partially or non-compliant extent, while only half of countries have brought in changes to accommodate the Travel Rule. To pull out the key learnings from the report, TRM's Ari Redbord and Isabella Chase are joined by Lana Schwartzman, Head of Regulatory and Compliance and Catarina Veloso Senior Associate for regulatory compliance at Notabene for TRM Talks: FATF Travel Rule Implementation.

Where Finance Finds Its Future
Why the case for regulating cryptocurrencies is becoming unanswerable

Where Finance Finds Its Future

The peer-to-peer system of cash outlined by Satoshi Nakamoto in his famous paper of October 2008 did not mention regulators or regulations. But its ambition of dispensing with trusted third parties did mean jettisoning regulated financial institutions. Nearly 14 years on, only the irreconcilable libertarian wing of the Blockchain industry still considers regulation of cryptocurrencies to be unthinkable. Major cryptocurrency intermediaries are getting regulated already. Two of the major cryptocurrency exchanges (Coinbase and FTX) have multiple regulatory licences and even Binance has secured a licence in France and applied for licences in Bahrain and Dubai. Likewise, of a list of 100 digital wallet custodians, 42 have secured or applied for regulatory licences. Nor is it true to say any longer that cryptocurrencies are unregulated. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) extended Know Your Client (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) and sanctions screening obligations to the cryptocurrency markets as long ago as October 2018. Grumbling by cryptocurrency brokers and exchanges about the application of the Travel Rule – which obliges them to share identifying information about buyers and sellers of cryptocurrencies – is merely the latest instalment of this long-running set of obligations. Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) now have to be filed. Besides, regulators are losing patience with the seemingly unending series of scams, hacks and thefts of cryptocurrency. Since hackers made off with US$500 million of Bitcoins from Mt Gox back in 2014, thefts of cryptocurrency have remained a constant. According to Chainalysis, thieves stole $3.2 billion worth of cryptocurrency in 2021 and another US$1.3 billion in the first quarter of this year, most of it from Decentralised Finance (DeFi) protocols. Chainalysis reports an average of 66 crypto-currency thefts a year since Mt Gox. But thieves are not the only people taxing retail cryptocurrency investors. Almost all the rewards of cryptocurrency trading go to professionals, including via pump-and-dump schemes. So it is not surprising that regulators are clamping down on the sale and distribution of crypto-currencies. Singapore has been particularly vocal about discouraging sales of cryptocurrencies to retail investors but the United Kingdom is now pondering similar restrictions. In emerging market economies, cryptocurrencies are used routinely to bypass capital controls or evade tax. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's been a bit of Bad News. The canary doesn't seem to be moving, and its time that we take our situation seriously. As Bitcoin becomes both more mature and finds its way back into a bull market, we can also expect a sharp increase in regulatory and governmental attention. The powers that be, the surveillance state, and the control that the financial institutions have acquired will not be lost without a fight. Bitcoin is disrupting some of the most influential institutions on the planet. They are unlikely to sit by while we divest from their control & take back our sovereignty and privacy.
