ChainBytes, LLC Announces Joint Initiative with BTM Compliance, LLC to Improve AML/KYC Processes for Bitcoin ATMs

ChainBytes, LLC, a Bitcoin ATM manufacturer based in Whitehall, PA, announced a joint initiative with BTM Compliance, LLC to help improve Anti-Money Laundering/Know-Your-Customer (AML/KYC) compliance processes for Bitcoin ATM kiosks.

Federal AML/KYC regulations help law enforcement officials tamp down on money laundering, fraud, and other unlawful financial activity.

Improving fraud protection and AML/KYC best-practices are key to keeping Bitcoin ATMs safe, secure, and accessible to legitimate consumers."
