The guidelines, which many refer to as the \u201cTravel Rule\u201d, aims to prevent users of crypto firms and exchanges from using digital assets for illicit purposes by recommending they provide details on both the sender and recipient to their counterparts for certain transactions of $1,000 or more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are focused on adding new members, so that TRUST can provide comprehensive compliance across the crypto industry,\u201d said the announcement. \u201cThe Travel Rule\u2019s reach is expanding internationally, and so must our solution.
