Zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof)-based compliance protocol PureFi has launched its Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) integration for the Uniswap decentralized exchange (DEX).
According to a recent announcement shared with Cointelegraph, PureFi claims that its ZK-proof-based KYC and AML integration for Uniswap helps address security and compliance concerns at the protocol level. While the integration can be implemented as part of any Uniswap v4 pool, it was deployed as part of the PureFi DEX Uniswap implementation, replacing standard interfaces with custom compliance routers.
The new decentralized finance (DeFi) platform also introduces level-based verification that scales checks based on transaction volume. Checks go from basic identity and sanctions verification at low volumes to comprehensive KYC with risk-based wallet scoring and real-time monitoring at high volumes.
