The decentralized trading platform ANT.FUN has officially obtained the Canadian MSB (Money Services Business) license today, marking a key step in the platform's global compliance layout. This milestone not only enhances the platform's compliance qualifications in the North American market but also lays a solid foundation for its future global business expansion.The Canadian MSB license is one of the most valuable compliance qualifications in the global digital asset industry, regulated by Canada's FINTRAC. Licensed institutions must meet strict anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) requirements, so obtaining the MSB license means that the platform has reached international standards in risk control systems, secure operations, and compliance construction.As a new generation of decentralized trading infrastructure, ANT.FUN has always adhered to the construction philosophy of safety, transparency, and compliance first. This approval not only demonstrates the team's long-term investment in professional capabilities but also indicates its determination to actively self-regulate and develop steadily under the global regulatory framework. ANT.FUN has previously obtained the US SMB, STO, and RIA licenses, and with the acquisition of the Canadian MSB license, ANT.FUN's path to internationalization will be smoother, making it more competitive in serving global users and building a trustworthy Web3 financial ecosystem.

Shaun, the founder and CEO of ANT.FUN, stated at the Finternet 2025 Asia Digital Finance Summit supported by the OSL Group that stablecoins are expected to drive the emergence of new financial applications, which he described as "three-dimensional species," believing that their characteristic is the ability to obtain a high customer lifetime value (LTV) from a single user.Shaun indicated that traditional super apps are "two-dimensional," only occupying user time and installation volume, and their financial monetization capabilities are strictly limited by licenses and regions. However, the "financial super APP" of Web3 will be "three-dimensional": supported by stablecoins, users can seamlessly connect all financial services such as consumption, trading, wealth management, and contracts within the same application, thereby creating lifetime value that traditional applications cannot reach. Shaun noted that the backdrop of this transformative era is that the world is on the "eve" of general artificial intelligence (AGI), and he anticipates that strong artificial intelligence (ASI) will be achieved within three to five years, emphasizing that it is the combination of AGI and digital currency that makes such a super application capable of reshaping the economic structure possible.
