Awareness on Transactions and the AMF Blacklist

In the context of our compliance procedures and in accordance with French regulatory requirements, we want to inform you about the handling of transactions involving entities listed on the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) blacklist. This article explains the reasons behind potential transaction rejections and provides useful resources to better understand these measures.

Why was your cryptocurrency transaction rejected?

If a transaction you attempted was rejected, it may be because the recipient is listed on the AMF blacklist. This list identifies platforms or entities that do not comply with French regulations or pose significant risks to investors.

In accordance with current regulations, any transaction directed to an entity on this list may be blocked.

To identify listed entities, we encourage you to consult the blacklist directly on the AMF’s official website:
AMF Blacklist.

Why do these measures exist?

These restrictions aim to protect users from dubious or fraudulent practices. Platforms included on the blacklist may:

• Operate without proper authorization under French regulations.
• Offer risky or non-compliant investment services.
• Engage in abusive or fraudulent commercial practices.

By rejecting transactions to such entities, we help mitigate risks for our clients and comply with regulatory obligations.

What to do if your transaction is rejected?

If your transaction was blocked, we recommend you take the following steps:

1. Consult the AMF blacklist to verify whether the recipient is listed.
2. Use authorized platforms recognized by regulatory authorities (refer to the AMF’s whitelist).
3. Contact our customer service if you require assistance or further explanations.

How to avoid risks associated with unauthorized platforms?

Here are some best practices to secure your transactions and investments:

• Check the AMF authorization: Before selecting a platform, ensure it is registered or approved by the AMF.
• Prioritize reliable sources: Refer to official websites and reviews to assess the credibility of an entity.
