BAD ACTORS

Hydra has zero tolerance for bad actors.

Privacy should never be mistaken nor be associated with illicit activity. The cryptocurrency industry must follow all the AML and sanctioned entities regulations to prevent bad actors from abusing platforms known as "mixers" to launder illicit funds.

Mixers often operate as money transmitters and while having regulatory reporting obligations, the may deliberately operate in noncompliant manner to make it more difficult for regulators and law enforcements to trace illicit funds.

Hydra is NOT a mixer - mixers are illegal.

Hydra works with OFAC-compliant exchange partners that monitor for sanctioned entities.

Our exchange partners have their own AML and sanctions policies for screening wallets and transactions in real time to ensure that no criminal activity takes place on the platforms. The screening uncovers links to money-laundering, terrorist financing, and sanctioned entities with holistic risk profiles of a wallet that takes into account all transactions across all blockchains and assets. In the event a transaction is flagged as having criminal risk, exchange partners may subject transactions to additional information requirements as per their AML and sanctions policies.

Hydra values your privacy but strongly condems cybercrimes.
