ARGOS ID strongly believes that mitigating the global risks associated with cryptocurrencies is vital just as remarked by the national security Council of the White House's recent publication.
Crypto assets, a digital form of money that functions as a medium of exchange within the cryptocurrency market, utilize cryptographic techniques and advanced blockchain technology. As cryptocurrency transactions escape traditional financial networks, they face a unique set of risks including reduced consumer protections and heightened vulnerability to cybercrime. With cryptocurrency emerging as an increasingly popular asset class, it is important to carefully consider these global risks associated with virtual asset investment.
Ensuring that the future of cryptocurrency is secure is an absolute necessity in order to take advantage of its vast potential as a medium of exchange. By mitigating various risks associated with this type of technology, such as issues related to privacy and security, future users can be given access to a safe and reliable platform for transacting. This effort is crucial in safeguarding the future success of cryptocurrency and protecting its users.
ARGOS ID, a travel rule solution particularly specializing in verifying crypto wallets, provides a reliable and sound environment for virtual assets transactions. The crypto travel rule is about verifying who sends the assets to who and how much, and vice versa. The traditional financial market has an existing system known as SWIFT. However, in the cryptocurrency industry, this form of regulation is not yet set. That’s why various nations and governments try hard on creating such robust and comprehensive crypto regulation. ARGOS ID is one of the earliest solution providers for verifying personal crypto wallets which is greatly emphasized by FATF(The Financial Action Task Force).
Virtual asset service providers (VASPs) are facing difficulties and challenges on a number of different fronts. First, they need to keep up with the regulations and requirements issued by various entities, including central banks and financial supervisors. Aside from that, VASPs have to continually update their security protocols as cybercriminals continue to develop more sophisticated ways of attacking digital systems. One of the regulations that are strongly recommended by the inter-governmental body is regarding the verification of those anonymous crypto wallets. ARGOS ID, an online solution applicable via API and Web SDK, provides fast and easy ways on verifying unhosted wallets such as MetaMask.
With the increasing prevalence of cryptocurrency in business and personal finances alike, it is essential for those dealing with digital currencies to take steps toward reducing risk. Many potential risks come along with trading or investing in cryptocurrencies, such as sudden wild swings in market value and fraudulent activity. Acknowledging these possible risks of ownership and developing a strategy for reducing them can lead to longer-term success and make handling digital currencies easier over time. Taking the necessary steps now will ensure one’s complete peace of mind when working with cryptocurrency later on.

Did you know that there is a process for KYC and AML? It may be confusing when you do not know well about the KYC and AML process flow. In this article, we will cover how the identity verification process flows along with Anti-money laundering screening.
KYC first, and then AML Screening
KYC(Know Your Customer) is verifying individuals’ personal identities. The process is simple and easy as users go through minimal steps, submitting an ID card and a selfie photo. Once the KYC is done and his/her identity is verified, then we move on to the next step, AML Screening.
This means that when the KYC process is not finished or KYC got rejected asking to try again, then it cannot move on to the AML screening step. In order to screen the individual from the AML database, KYC must be approved. Pending or rejected KYC projects cannot go through the further step.
Approved KYC does not mean free from Money Laundering Risk

We talked about Web 3.0 in the basic definition, the meaning, and the difference of the current internet environment(Web 2.0). Let us go a little deeper regarding how and where Web 3.0 is going to be active.
Web 3.0 is yet to come but it is going to be much more revolutionized which can process information like a human. When talking about Web 3.0, we cannot forget about decentralization and blockchain. The current generation of the internet stores and processes data in a centralized way. All the data individuals create, whether it is searching specific topics or creating image and video content, there are platforms we use. They are Google, Instagram, Youtube, and Twitter to name a few. And as you may know, all these big technology companies collect data. So the data are collected and used in a centralized format.
In Web 3.0, we expect that users and machines will be able to interact with data. This is where Web 3.0 needs more artificial intelligence (A.I) to process data and be able to communicate with users. Using AI technology is related to the idea of providing relevant information to end-users with speed and accuracy. Web 3.0 will operate in a decentralized environment where the concept of blockchain and cryptocurrency also gets involved.
Where Web 3.0 is expected to provide such convenience to the end-users with greater usage of AI technology. Argos KYC, an identity verification solution provider, we view Web 3.0 where verifying identities would become an important factor. When there is a gathering of people, people on the internet with a decentralized environment, transparency would become a crucial part. Transparency in interaction, communication, and activities related to finance. So we see that identifying identities would become a valuable process for people around the world to use and participate in the Web 3.0 environment.
