TRUSThub Brings Simpler Travel Rule Integration

TRUST, which stands for Travel Rule Universal Solution Technology, is an industry-led compliance network. It connects Virtual Asset Service Providers, commonly known as VASPs, to exchange Travel Rule data securely. 

The network operates on a peer-to-peer model with no central data repository.

The newly launched TRUSThub extends this core solution. It allows members to exchange Travel Rule data with counterparties regardless of the tools they currently use. 

According to the announcement, TRUSThub also addresses “sunrise” gaps, which occur as different jurisdictions phase in Travel Rule rules at different times. The hub simplifies the onboarding process, helping VASPs connect to the network faster.

BNY Joins a Growing Roster of Crypto Compliance Members

BNY, a leading global financial services company, has officially joined the TRUST network. 

Coinbase highlighted the membership as a sign of growing institutional alignment around compliant crypto transactions. BNY joins a long list of prominent names already using the network.

That list includes Bitgo, OKX, Revolut, Anchorage, Circle, Coinbase, Crypto.com, Fidelity Digital Assets, Gemini, Kraken, PayPal, and Paxos, among others. The growing membership reflects how widely the financial industry has embraced TRUST’s privacy-first model. 

No sensitive customer data sits in a central location under this structure, which appears to be a key draw for institutions.

21 Analytics Partnership Targets Faster Global Adoption

Coinbase also announced a partnership with 21 Analytics, a Travel Rule automation software provider. 

The collaboration aims to make it easier for VASPs already using 21 Analytics to join the TRUST network. Existing workflows can carry over, reducing friction during integration.

Beyond Travel Rule data exchange, 21 Analytics offers tools to verify ownership of self-hosted wallets. This additional layer of functionality strengthens the compliance picture for participating. 

The partnership also supports TRUST’s broader global expansion, which now spans the EU, UK, Australia, India, Brazil, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, Switzerland, and the UAE, among other markets.

Coinbase says it will continue investing in interoperability, security, and ease of adoption as the network grows.
