HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 March 2025 – UU Wallet, a leading global Web3 payment platform, recently announced that it has officially obtained the Money Services Business (MSB) license from the United States. This makes UU Wallet one of the few digital financial service platforms that combines robust security capabilities with global compliance credentials. The approval of this license signifies that UU Wallet can now operate compliantly within the U.S. regulatory framework, engaging in digital asset transactions, fiat currency exchange, and cross-border payments, further solidifying its position as the “most secure Web3 payment platform.”

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.

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.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Neswire – 14 March 2025 – Hong Kong has emerged as the world’s “most improved” location for university degree courses, reflecting the determination of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government to develop the city into an international education hub with strong emphasis on nurturing talents in innovation and technology.

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.

Hong Kong spares no effort in developing the city into an international hub for post-secondary education.

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.
