In a significant validation of Singapore's growing influence in digital asset regulation, ChainUp, a Singapore-based global provider of digital asset solutions, has secured finalist positions in two prestigious categories at the Thomson Reuters' Asian Legal Business (ALB) Pan-Asian Regulatory Awards 2025.

Setting New Standards in Digital Asset Compliance

The nominations, announced on September 4, 2025, recognize ChainUp's excellence in Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) Compliance Team of the Year and Transaction Monitoring Solution Provider of the Year categories. This achievement comes at a time when Singapore continues to strengthen its regulatory framework across digital platforms.

Strategic Focus on Institutional-Grade Security

Sailor Zhong, Founder & CEO of ChainUp, emphasized the company's commitment to compliance: "The digital asset space is at a pivotal inflection point, and being a finalist for a Thomson Reuters-backed award validates our strategic focus on institutional-grade security and compliance."

This recognition follows Singapore's broader push toward digital innovation, as evidenced by recent technological collaborations in the region. The company's solutions address critical challenges in:

  • Sanctions screening
  • Financial crime prevention
  • Regulatory compliance automation
  • Transaction monitoring

Innovation Meets Compliance

As the digital asset landscape evolves, Singapore continues to lead in regulatory innovation. While some crypto projects focus on viral marketing, ChainUp's recognition underscores the importance of robust compliance infrastructure.

The winners will be announced at a ceremony on September 18, 2025, in Singapore, further cementing the city-state's position as Asia's premier financial technology hub.
