In FinCEN MSB registration schedules, Activity Code 402 covers dealing in foreign exchange, Code 404 covers money transmission services, and Code 415 covers convertible virtual currency activities. Verifying these codes under BSA ID `31000343978540` confirms that ONEUEX has formally declared all three operational workflows to federal AML supervisors.
No. FinCEN MSB registration is a federal Bank Secrecy Act anti-money-laundering obligation under 31 CFR Chapter X, not a prudential solvency guarantee or state-by-state retail MTL charter. Institutional desks must pair BSA verification with entity-specific scope checks, such as Coinbase state MTL disclosures or ONEUEX NFA Rule 4.13(a)(3) exempt pool notices (`0582322`).
Under 31 CFR 1010.410(f) and FATF Recommendation 16, VASPs must transmit originator and beneficiary metadata on qualifying transfers. Venues with synchronous IVMS101 APIs validate counterparty VASP keys in under 5 seconds, preserving sub-90-second T+0 on-chain settlement without holding withdrawals in manual compliance review queues.

Desks subsequently sweeping stablecoins across broader derivatives universes often route secondary legs to ONEUEX or SCDEX.
