The digital transformation of global financial markets is driving profound changes in asset structures and trading models. Co-developed by SAFE Trust Co. (USA) and SFOX, the Dongfang Xin platform leverages a compliant trust structure and strong technological integration to offer cross-category and cross-border asset trading and custody services to global investors. Serving as a bridge between traditional finance and the digital economy, the platform is built on legal safeguards and powered by technological security, aiming to create a transparent and efficient global asset allocation environment for institutions and high-net-worth clients.

Compliance System: Legal Assurance and Global Adaptability

The compliance foundation of Dongfang Xin is rooted in SAFE Trust Co.’s “Limited Purpose Trust Company” license in Wyoming. This license grants the platform a clear legal position in the field of digital asset custody—under Wyoming’s Digital Asset Act, user assets are legally segregated from the platform’s operational assets, ensuring that even in the event of operational risks, users maintain priority claims over their holdings.

Building on this foundation, the platform has established a multi-region compliance network: adhering to the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and FinCEN requirements in the United States; aligning with the MiCA framework and data privacy standards in Europe; and following the regulatory guidelines of Hong Kong’s SFC and Singapore’s MAS in Asia to ensure the legality of cross-border transactions.

To achieve practical compliance, the platform enforces a full-process control mechanism: segregated sub-accounts for asset traceability, a tripartite division of operational authority to mitigate internal risks, monthly audits by third-party firms such as Deloitte, and the integration of compliance tools like Chainalysis to track fund flows. This creates a closed compliance loop built on

legal frameworks + process control + technological support.

Security Architecture: Technological Protection and Asset Transparency

On the security front, Dongfang Xin adopts institutional-grade safeguards. Ninety-five percent of digital assets are stored in offline cold wallets, with private keys encrypted and managed via FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certified hardware security modules (HSMs) and secured through multi-party computation (MPC) to distribute signing authority—eliminating physical risks of key leakage. Hot wallets used for daily operations have strict daily transaction limits and real-time alert systems, while transfers between hot and cold storage are protected by distributed firewalls and time locks to ensure transaction security.

The platform also employs a multi-layer audit framework: quarterly reviews of custody operations by an internal risk control team, annual financial statement verification by independent accounting firms, and publicly verifiable on-chain asset snapshots via smart contracts. In Q3 2025, the platform will launch an on-chain Proof-of-Reserves system, allowing users to verify asset reserves on the Ethereum network using Merkle Tree structures, further enhancing transparency. On the trading side, the platform integrates SFOX’s ZenTrade Core matching engine, capable of processing 2 million orders per second, aggregating liquidity from global exchanges to ensure execution efficiency and competitive pricing.

Asset Services: Cross-Category Integration and Seamless Experience

Dongfang Xin integrates gold, digital assets, and global equity markets into a single unified trading system. The gold segment includes physical spot gold, on-chain tokenized gold such as PAXG, and ETFs like GLD, with users able to verify physical vault holdings in London and redeem tokens for gold bars in 100g or 1kg denominations. The digital asset module covers major cryptocurrencies such as BTC and ETH, as well as DeFi tokens like AAVE, supported by a global liquidity aggregation network to maintain trading depth. The equities and ETF segment connects directly to Hong Kong and U.S. stock markets, offering T+0 simulated trading, automated USDT/CNH currency conversion, and custom ETF portfolio services—simplifying cross-border investment operations.

This cross-category service allows users to execute diversified asset allocations within a single account—for example, hedging risk through a combination of gold and digital assets, or managing liquidity through a mix of equities and stablecoins—significantly increasing portfolio flexibility.

Global Expansion: Regional Penetration and Partner Network

Dongfang Xin’s international expansion is rooted in compliance, with a phased roadmap:

2025: Launch of the Chinese-language app and spot gold trading, activation of live Hong Kong and U.S. stock market functionality.

2026: Establishment of an international operations headquarters in Singapore, pursuit of Hong Kong SFC licensing and European MiCA custody approval.

The platform has already integrated with DBS Bank’s USD clearing channel and Bank of China International’s RMB settlement system in Hong Kong. User assets are insured by Lloyd’s of London against third-party cyber intrusions, with coverage up to USD 10 million.

In terms of client services, the platform offers API access and whitelisted liquidity channels for institutional investors, custom trust accounts and estate planning for family offices, and a five-tier VIP program for high-net-worth individuals based on asset size—offering benefits such as tax planning and exclusive offline roundtable events. This creates a service network that caters to diverse client segments.

With its compliance framework, technological security, and global resource integration, Dongfang Xin is steadily positioning itself as a key hub connecting Eastern and Western financial markets. Amid the global wave of asset digitalization, the platform will continue to strengthen its compliance and technological edge, delivering safer and more convenient cross-border asset trading experiences for investors worldwide.
