With blockchain’s current high profile, its chairman Chia Hock Li clarified that the timing was ideal. “In blockchain regulations, we are seeing growing regulatory certainty and urgency,” he said. “The digital assets industry is also seeing an increase in institutional interest.”
He listed DBS Bank’s decision to sell crypto-assets to high-net-worth individuals and institutions in Singapore and other foreign moves by PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, JP Morgan, and Goldman Sachs. Finally, he mentioned the growing number of large-scale blockchain deployments, especially in trade finance.
The consortium’s six participants are:
– Asosiasi Blockchain Indonesia (ABI)
– Blockchain Association Singapore (BAS)
– Distributed Ledger Technology Association of the Philippines (DLTAP)
– Labuan International Business and Financial Centre (Labuan IBFC)
– Thailand Digital Asset Operators Trade Association (TDO)
– Blockchain Australia (BA)
As the blockchain industry matures, there is a greater need for regulators to understand legal compliance.
