Near the end of last year FINTRAC fined crypto platform Cryptomus $126 million and crypto exchange KuCoin $14 million for a range of alleged violations.
Canada’s financial intelligence unit has revoked the registrations of 50 money services businesses (MSBs) so far this year, with 47 related to crypto, and the minister of finance says it will continue cracking down.
Canada’s Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre (FINTRAC) said on Monday that it took its most recent action, revoking 23 MSB registrations.
Minister of Finance François-Philippe Champagne said in a statement on Tuesday that it’s part of the government’s latest effort to combat money laundering, with FINTRAC also “strengthening enforcement and increasing transparency on compliance actions.”
