An incomplete map of the Digital Asset Compliance Landscape
A snapshot of the infrastructure protecting value as it moves onchain, organized by when each control acts.
If you're building something that touches regulated assets, the layer you're missing is probably on this map.

02. PRE-SETTLEMENT (Binds)

Circle (Compliance Engine): stablecoin compliance engine
@ForteProtocol (Rules Engine): onchain rules engine for compliance
@newton_xyz: authorization layer for onchain finance
@phylaxsystems: policy engine for programmable capital
@0xPredicate: programmable policy for onchain apps

Travel Rule & VASP
21 Analytics: on-premises Travel Rule solution
@Notabene_io: Travel Rule compliance & VASP messaging
@shyftnetwork (Veriscope): frictionless Travel Rule solution
VerifyVASP: Travel Rule verification network
03. MONITORING (Observes)
Regulatory Reporting
@Ledgiblecrypto: crypto tax and regulatory reporting
Regnology: CARF/DAC8 specialist reporting
@TaxBit: enterprise crypto tax & compliance
Surveillance
Eventus Validus: trade surveillance platform
Nasdaq Market Surveillance: market surveillance solutions

04. ASSET LAYER (Binds)
Token-Level Rules

@Securitize: regulated digital assets
@trex_network (ERC-3643 / T-REX): compliant security token standard
@Vertalo_: tokenization and transfer agent platform
Everything in the input layer informs. Everything in monitoring observes. The ability to stop a transaction lives in one narrow window before settlement, and that's where newton works.
Thanks to @makhavannik, @Gigimp1 and @0xalaz_ for helping put this together.
The map is incomplete and the blockchain compliance space moves fast. If we missed a project, reply and we'll add it to the next version.
New all-time high for tokenized real-world assets. ~$38B onchain.
Treasuries opened the door. Private credit, commodities and equities walked through it.
