Crystal joins Predicate to enable decentralized compliance

by the Crystal Marketing Team

The evolving crypto regulatory environment is creating greater connectivity between blockchains and the global financial system, linking regulated and unregulated markets.  

To keep pace with regulations, innovative solutions are needed to integrate risk management into decentralized systems.  

Through our partnership with Predicate, a decentralized network for transaction prerequisites, we empower developers to build blockchain applications that can easily expand into regulated markets.

Predicate enables users, developers, and communities to define rules for onchain interactions, integrating expressive pre-transaction logic into decentralized applications. These rules, like legos, can be stacked to form policies, which are enforced by the Predicate Network. 

Enhancing transactions with risk insights 

The Predicate Network enables developers to integrate pre-transaction rules through a transparent, verifiable, and open approach.  

With Crystal’s data within the Predicate ecosystem, Predicate users can manage transactions originating from high-risk or sanctioned wallet addresses, automate compliance checks without compromising decentralization, and build custom transaction policies that are enforced at the smart contract level. 

For example, a DeFi lending platform can integrate Crystal data through Predicate to get alerts on wallets flagged for association with exploits or illicit activity.  

Similarly, a token bridge can ensure assets originating from blacklisted addresses are automatically rejected.  

This seamless integration of Crystal’s risk intelligence into Predicate ensures that developers can focus on innovation, while meeting the regulatory requirements. 

Building blockchain ecosystems that scale 

By integrating our analytics solution into Predicate’s decentralized infrastructure, developers gain access to powerful tools that enable risk-informed decision-making without sacrificing user experience. This is crucial if blockchains are to scale to onboard larger capital flows from regulated markets. 

Crystal’s integration into Predicate is just the beginning. Together, we aim to expand the boundaries of what’s possible with decentralized compliance. Whether you’re building a DeFi protocol, RWA marketplace, stablecoin system, or infrastructure such as a token bridge, this integration provides the infrastructure to grow your application and your users.
