UU Wallet Secures U.S. MSB License, Embarking on a New Chapter of Global Compliance with Security at Its Core
Security and Compliance: Driving Global Strategy
The U.S. MSB license, issued by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the Department of the Treasury, is a critical entry requirement for international financial institutions to provide monetary services. Passing the license audit indicates that UU Wallet has met stringent U.S. regulatory standards in areas such as anti-money laundering (AML), risk control systems, and user asset protection.
Since its establishment in 2023, UU Wallet has rapidly grown into a Web3 payment ecosystem covering over 160 countries and regions, thanks to its technological innovation and commitment to security. With a team of over 100 professionals, UU Wallet focuses on four core businesses: digital currency and fiat exchange, prepaid cards, enterprise wallet services, and Web3 wealth management. Its daily transaction volume has surpassed $20 million.
Four Core Features Redefining Secure Payment Experiences
Instant Fiat Exchange, Secure and Frictionless
UU Wallet supports instant conversions between mainstream fiat currencies such as the Philippine Peso (PHP), South Korean Won (KRW), Japanese Yen (JPY), US Dollar (USD), Hong Kong Dollar (HKD), and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), and digital currencies. Utilizing intelligent routing and multi-signature cold wallet technology, users can complete cross-border fund transfers within 5 seconds, with end-to-end data encryption and a zero-risk incident record.
Global Prepaid Cards: USDT Real-Time Circulation, Balancing KYC Efficiency and Security
Users can instantly recharge prepaid cards with USDT, which are accepted in over 160 countries and regions for both online and offline purchases. The platform supports both virtual and physical cards, as well as B2B client integration. UU Wallet’s unique “tiered KYC” mechanism allows basic consumption scenarios to complete identity verification in just 3 minutes, while larger transactions are secured through dynamic facial recognition and blockchain address tracking, striking a balance between convenience and security.
Enterprise Wallet Services: Comprehensive Fund Protection
For Web3 enterprises, UU Wallet offers payment and fund management solutions covering 50+ public chains and 10,000+ tokens. Through secure multi-party computation (MPC) technology, real-time risk warning systems, and monthly third-party audits, UU Wallet ensures transparent and traceable fund flows, mitigating risks of operational errors and hacker attacks.
Web3 Asset Wealth Management: Balancing Returns and Risk Control
The platform provides a variety of value-added services, including flexible staking, structured products, and compliant stablecoin wealth management. All products are executed automatically via smart contracts, with code security verified by top-tier auditing firms. Historical annualized returns range from 3% to 15%, ensuring users’ assets grow steadily and securely.

High Marks for Hong Kong’s University Degree Courses

The 2025 QS World University Rankings by Subject rated six local degree courses among the world’s top 10, up from three last year, while 68% of 231 programmes from nine Hong Kong institutions rose in the rankings.
In the field of data science and artificial intelligence (AI), five Hong Kong universities are ranked among the world’s top 50, the highest number in Asia and second-highest globally.
This demonstrates the city’s immense potential and competitiveness in technological innovation, providing crucial support for the city’s future economic transformation and upgrading. The Government has also rolled out various supportive policies and initiatives to attract talent and businesses to Hong Kong to participate in driving related products to market and engaging in innovation.
The surge up of Hong Kong’s rankings was contributed by the comprehensive three-pronged approach involving the HKSAR Government, the efforts by universities in teaching and research, as well as social resource collaboration.
The leap up the rankings also further enhanced the “Study in Hong Kong” brand, helping world-leading academic disciplines in the city attract top-tier students for advanced studies.
“The Education Bureau will also continue to collaborate with institutions to attract more students from around the world to build Hong Kong into an international hub for high-calibre talent,” said Secretary for Education Dr Choi Yuk-lin.
According to the QS release, about 80% of subjects of the city’s universities had shown improvement in academic reputation, with significant progress across most indicators. This highlighted Hong Kong’s continued leadership in the field of higher education, serving as a global model of success.
This year’s ranking compared over 21,000 academic offerings, taken by students at more than 1,700 universities across 100 countries and territories in 55 subjects.
