Blockpass Newsletter - Compliance, Chats and Crypto
June 09, 2020
We have a number of things for you in our newsletter this week. First up, we have our latest blog to showcase, which looks into how compliance is necessary to have an crypto and blockchain solutions that can integrate with our everyday lives. Following our overview of the Blockpass-TOZEX virtual fireside chat, last week, this week we published the video and full transcript for those that want to view the event in action. In our Marketplace Offers section we have a new company this week with Cryptotax being the latest service to join. Highlighting another video, we look back a couple of years to our milestone launch event. To conclude, we sit down with Toan Hoang, Technical Team Leader, in our 5 Minutes With section. We would like to think you are all well and live in a safe and secure environment, but for those that experience the horrific reality of racism and prejudice we hope you'll join us in supporting the Black Lives Matter movement in any way you can.
How Compliance Changes Crypto Attitudes
Since the beginning there has always been scepticism and doubt about cryptocurrencies and blockchain. Not helped by some early users taking advantage of the lack of regulation and peoples unfamiliarity with the technology and scamming people, many have unfairly dismissed it, and particularly bitcoin, as a haven for criminals and fraud. Big names in the finance industry, amongst others, initially stated that there was no future in such an unregulated scene.
But what if regulation is adhered to? What if compliance can be achieved quickly, easily and cheaply? With the increase in regulations and guidelines for crypto and blockchain projects, it seems that the perception of the technology is shifting gradually towards the positive for most people. Enabling this is one of the many possibilities that Blockpass can provide. Click here to read about our latest blog which details how attitudes to crypto and blockchain change when identity verification allows companies to comply with regulations.
Watch Blockpass and TOZEX's Virtual Fireside Chat
Previously we published an overview of the fireside chat that took place on the 26th of May between TOZEX CEO Remy Ozcan and Blockpass CEO Adam Vaziri, moderated by Blockpass COO Hans Lombardo. The virtual event was a chance for the two companies and CEOs to discuss recent developments in their partnership and in the wider crypto and blockchain world.
This week we published both the video of the chat and a full transcript for those that want to read or hear the details in full. We hope to bring you more virtual events like these until physical meetups and conferences become possible again. Click here to watch the video or read the transcript of the event in its entirety.

A Look Back at a Milestone Event
Whilst this week saw us featured our latest video, with new partners TOZEX, it is not the only video Blockpass has put out. Just over two years ago, we celebrated one of our most significant milestones with the launch of the Blockpass Mobile App. With a live event in London, it was an excellent night showcasing our new product and meeting up with partners and interested parties.
Though meeting up in-person may seem little more than a distant memory with the current pandemic, we look forward to a time where we can meet up again to talk about Blockpass, compliance and the future of identity. Click here for a reminder of the launch event that we posted over two years ago!.
