Mauro Halve

Head of Compliance

Join us for an illuminating webinar with Mauro Halve, Head of Compliance at Amdax, the first crypto service provider in the Netherlands fully registered with De Nederlandsche Bank and one of the early adopters of MiCA licensing from the Dutch Authority for Financial Markets.

Amdax stands out not only for its regulatory pioneering role, but also for its exceptional operational standards. It was the first crypto firm in the EU to complete an ISAE 3000 Type II audit, building on its earlier Type I certification. Backed by proprietary tech, full-reserve vault systems that keep each crypto asset one-to-one, and a secure infrastructure supported by independent oversight, Amdax is widely recognized for bringing maturity and professionalism to the industry.

In this session, Mauro will bring you into the frontlines of crypto compliance, covering:

  • Typologies and red flags that help identify suspicious activity
  • The Travel Rule and its implications for compliance
  • Obfuscation methods such as cross-chain bridges and mixing – and how they can still be traced
  • The broader AML/CFT context, including links to sanctions and tax evasion

Participants also gain access to exclusive, real-world examples and investigative workflows—insights that make the criminal crypto ecosystem more understandable and actionable for compliance professionals.

Mauro Halve

gründete während seines Jurastudiums ein Kryptounternehmen, das er später erfolgreich verkaufte, um sich ganz auf die Einhaltung von Vorschriften und die Blockchain-Forensik zu konzentrieren - derzeit beim niederländischen Branchenführer Amdax. Er verbringt viel Zeit damit, den öffentlichen und privaten Sektor zu schulen (u. a. Regulierungsbehörden, Banker und AML/CFT/Sanktionen-Analysten der ersten und zweiten Reihe), indem er komplexe Themen mit seiner über 8-jährigen praktischen Erfahrung mit Kryptowährungen verständlich macht.

This event will take place online via Zoom. The access data will be sent to you before the event.
