About Interlace

Founded in 2019, Interlace powers stablecoin cross-border payments for global businesses and Web3 institutions. The platform offers open APIs for embedded finance and serves industries such as e-commerce, gaming, advertising agencies, and B2B trade.

Interlace adheres to global regulatory standards and holds the highest card-payment security certification: PCI-DSS Level 1. It is also licensed in the United States, Hong Kong SAR, and Lithuania.

Compliance Challenges Before BlockSec

  1. Complex inbound flows – Large volumes of deposits often come from risky sources (mixers, hacked protocols, darknet markets, sanctioned addresses). Manual reviews are slow, unreliable, and not real-time.

  2. Uncertain outbound flows – Hard to detect if withdrawal addresses belong to hackers, phishing wallets, or entities on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals list, creating compliance and reputation risks.

  3. Balancing control and user experience – Strict rules harm good users and block growth, while loose rules are ineffective. Precise and tiered risk management is needed.
