Dear users,

This week we expanded supported countries for verification, added new security features to better safeguard your assets, and more.

New Supported Countries

Fourteen new countries are now supported for Tier 2 verification on the ICONOMI platform: Angola, Australia, Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Honduras, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Namibia, Pakistan, Philippines, Senegal, Taiwan and Thailand. This brings the total supported countries for Tier 2 to 63.

FUN FACT: This increases the number of people eligible for Tier 2 verification by over 2 billion!

Two-Factor Authentication for Withdrawals

For improved security, separate two-factor authentication is now available for withdrawals. Read our Knowledge Base article to learn how to protect your assets further.

Withdrawal 2FA adds a second layer of protection for assets stored on the ICONOMI platform, allowing users to divide authentication across two separate devices: one device can be used for login 2FA, and another device can be used for withdrawal 2FA, ensuring no single point of failure. It is especially applicable for company accounts, allowing these two roles to be split between two different people.

We recommend enabling 2FA for every platform on which you store digital assets.

Media Highlights

“In this day and age, consumers all over the world want to be exposed to digital assets of all kinds.”

“‘Technologies like blockchain can be game changers for financial services and beyond. We need to build an enabling framework to let innovation flourish, while managing risks and protecting consumers,’ Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for the Digital Economy and Society, said in a statement.”

WEEKLY SNEAK PEAK:

DAA List

We will be adding an overview page of every DAA available on the platform with a summary of relevant measures and statistics.

Events Page

We will also be publishing an events page on our website where you’ll be able to track and register for upcoming Meet the Managers events around the world.

The next Meet the Managers event will take place in London on March 29. There will be another event in Madrid on April 5. Maybe your city will be next!
