Cregis 2025 Annual Review: Milestones & Achievements

Welcome to our special year-end edition of Cregis Press Forward. As we close 2025, we reflect on a transformative year that has positioned Cregis as a leading force in Web3 infrastructure. From global conference stages to regulatory milestones, strategic partnerships to security certifications, 2025 has been our most impactful year yet.

Global Expo Footprint: Expanding Institutional Presence

Cregis has strategically positioned itself at the forefront of global financial innovation, maintaining a commanding presence across the industry's most influential gatherings. Our participation in over ten major international events reflects our commitment to staying ahead of industry trends while making blockchain technology accessible to institutions worldwide.

From the bustling halls of Hong Kong's AsiaWorld-Expo during Consensus to the sophisticated venues of Singapore's TOKEN2049, we've consistently brought our vision of enterprise-grade Web3 infrastructure directly to decision-makers across diverse sectors. Our presence spanned the full spectrum of financial innovation—from traditional forex markets at IFX Expo Dubai, Cyprus and Hong Kong to cutting-edge fintech discussions at Singapore Fintech Festival, and payment evolution conversations at Money 20/20 Asia and Seamless.

This comprehensive expo strategy has enabled us to bridge the gap between emerging blockchain capabilities and institutional needs across multiple verticals. Whether engaging with forex traders in Dubai, fintech innovators in Singapore, or blockchain pioneers in Malaysia, we've maintained a singular focus: demonstrating that secure, compliant, and scalable Web3 infrastructure is no longer an aspiration—it's an operational reality available today.

Our global footprint has not only reinforced Cregis's position as a trusted infrastructure provider but has also facilitated meaningful connections with institutions seeking to navigate their digital asset journey. Through these face-to-face interactions across continents, we've transformed complex blockchain concepts into accessible solutions, earning recognition from major financial media for our role in accelerating institutional adoption across Asia's rapidly evolving digital asset landscape.

Key Events:

Connecting Industry Visionaries

Beyond the conference halls and exhibition floors lies the real value of industry engagement: meaningful connections. This year has been defined by collaborative dialogue, where Cregis brought together the brightest minds in Web3 through carefully curated industry gatherings and thought-provoking discussions.

Summit Collaborations
Our strategic summit partnerships have created platforms for deep industry discourse. In April, we collaborated with 4Alpha to explore institutional-grade Web3 solutions, while TOKEN2049 saw us partnering with KuCoin Institutional to host the "Institutional Web3 Forum: Secure. Efficient. Compliant," attracting over 300 industry decision-makers. Our alliance with Sumsub during the same period resulted in the "Web3 Finance: Powering the Future of Trust" summit, demonstrating how identity verification and asset management combine to create comprehensive compliance solutions.

Exclusive Soirée Events
Beyond formal conferences, we've fostered intimate networking through exclusive evening gatherings. Our collaboration with TheBlock and KuCoin Institutional during Binance Week created memorable soirée experiences that facilitated genuine industry connections. Similarly, our partnerships with Kazepay and Blockdaemon brought together key stakeholders during Malaysia Blockchain Week's after-party events, strengthening relationships within the regional Web3 community.

MicUp Seminar Series
Our flagship MicUp online seminar series has become a cornerstone of industry knowledge sharing, completing six successful episodes throughout 2025. Each session focused on critical topics including stablecoins, compliance, payments, and security, featuring executive insights from leading companies such as Paybis, Stable, U3 Fund, DCS, Tevau, Jsquare, DFG, Ivy, Plume, Interlace, Digital Shield, Regtank, Umy, and Block Office. These discussions have not only advanced industry understanding but also created lasting professional relationships that continue to drive innovation across the Web3 landscape.

Compliance Excellence

In an industry where trust is paramount, 2025 marked Cregis's evolution into a compliance-first organization. Here, regulatory clarity and security excellence converge to create unshakeable institutional confidence—a foundation built not on meeting minimum requirements, but on setting new standards across multiple jurisdictions.

Regulatory Milestone Achievements
Our regulatory journey reached significant milestones with the successful acquisition of Hong Kong's Trust or Company Service Provider (TCSP) license, establishing our presence in one of Asia's most sophisticated financial hubs. This achievement enables us to offer expanded fiduciary services while operating under one of the world's most robust regulatory frameworks. Simultaneously, our ongoing application process for Dubai's Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA) custody license represents our strategic expansion into the MENA region, where regulatory clarity is creating unprecedented opportunities for institutional digital asset services.

Security Certification Excellence
Parallel to our regulatory achievements, 2025 saw Cregis attain the industry's most rigorous security certifications. Our successful completion of AICPA SOC 2 Type I and Type II certification demonstrates our unwavering commitment to the highest standards of security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy across all service organization controls. This achievement was complemented by our ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, validating our systematic approach to information security management and our commitment to continuous security improvement processes.

Strategic Integration
These regulatory licenses and security certifications aren't isolated achievements—they represent a comprehensive compliance framework that addresses every aspect of institutional digital asset management. The combination of jurisdictional regulatory clarity and internationally recognized security standards creates a foundation of trust that enables our institutional clients to operate with complete confidence in an evolving regulatory landscape.

Engineering the Future of Web3 Infrastructure

Innovation without application is merely experimentation. Our product development philosophy centers on real-world solutions that address genuine institutional challenges, creating bridges between cutting-edge blockchain technology and the practical demands of modern business operations.

Cregis Infrastructure Expansion
Our flagship Cregis Nexus Private Deployment Solution represents a significant evolution beyond our established self-custodial WaaS offerings. Built on robust HSM (Hardware Security Module) technology, Nexus provides enterprises with complete control over their Web3 infrastructure. The platform supports multiple account models that can be customized and tailored to fit your specific business requirements, seamlessly accommodating diverse operational needs from platform accounts and payment processing to comprehensive financial institution payment network scenarios. This flexibility enables clients to utilize Nexus as the foundation for building their own compliance-focused custody services, tailored to their specific regulatory and operational requirements.

Advanced Security Technology Enhancement
Trust Vault represents our proprietary institutional custody solution, engineered to deliver multi-layered security through sophisticated access controls, organizational boundaries, and hardware isolation. Designed specifically for bank-grade institutional custody requirements, Trust Vault addresses the unique needs of regulated financial institutions that require maintaining key shards internally while benefiting from enterprise-grade compliance standards and operational efficiency.

Stablecoin Payment Innovation
Building upon our robust WaaS foundation, our payment engine represents a significant expansion into enterprise payment solutions for businesses seeking to leverage stablecoin infrastructure. Combined with comprehensive off-ramp capabilities, the payment engine enables instant crypto transactions and business expansion opportunities. Companies can now efficiently manage cross-border transactions, optimize treasury operations, and access new market opportunities through our integrated payment solutions, all while maintaining full compliance with relevant financial regulations.

Enhanced AML Screening Capabilities
Through strategic integration with industry leaders Elliptic and RegTank, we've significantly upgraded our transaction analysis technology, delivering real-time AML screening that meets the most stringent compliance requirements across global jurisdictions. This enhancement ensures our clients can operate with confidence in an increasingly regulated environment.

Complete Infrastructure at Your Fingertips
Our WaaS mobile app has evolved beyond serving as a transaction signing tool to become a comprehensive management platform. With secure MPC shard storage capabilities, users can now access complete infrastructure functionality, transaction monitoring, compliance tools, and administrative features directly from their mobile devices. This truly brings infrastructure on the go, ensuring seamless operations regardless of location or device preference.

Looking Forward: 2026 and Beyond

As we conclude 2025, we celebrate these achievements while building the foundation for even greater impact ahead. Our expanded regulatory licenses, deepened strategic partnerships, and validated security certifications position Cregis to lead the next phase of institutional Web3 adoption.

The foundations we've built this year—from global stage presence to regulatory compliance, from strategic partnerships to security excellence—create the platform for transformative growth ahead.

We extend our gratitude to our clients, partners, team members, and the broader Web3 community who made 2025 a landmark year for Cregis. Together, we're building the infrastructure that will power tomorrow's financial ecosystem.
