XREX 소개
XREX is a blockchain financial group founded in Taipei in 2018 with three business lines: a virtual asset exchange in Taiwan, XREX Pay for stablecoin-based cross-border settlement under a Major Payment Institution license in Singapore, and XRAY, an anti-money-laundering lookup tool. The exchange serves Taiwanese and Asia-Pacific users with fiat and crypto trading; XREX Pay uses dollar stablecoins as its settlement layer for business-to-business payments, clearing in stablecoin and fiat to bypass correspondent banking; XRAY turns address labels, risk scores and fund flows into a query interface used by banks, law enforcement and virtual asset service providers.
The lines feed each other: the exchange generates on-chain data and compliance samples, XRAY productizes that data, and XREX Pay sells the resulting compliance capability to companies moving money across borders. On 1 September 2026 the group won the Regulatory Excellence Award at the inaugural AFA Awards held by the Asia FinTech Alliance. Its reach is bounded by two licenses: the Taiwan entity may only run local virtual asset business, and the Singapore entity must file payment services item by item under its license framework, leaving cross-border expansion dependent on division of labour with local banks and service providers.
2018년에 설립된 XREX는 신흥 시장을 대상으로 한 암호화폐-법정화폐 거래소로 시작했습니다. 2019년에는 AppWorks가 주도하고 Skype 공동창업자 Toivo Annus가 참여한 700만 달러 규모의 시드 투자를 유치했습니다. 2021년 8월, XREX는 CDIB Capital이 주도하고 SBI Investment와 E.Sun Venture Capital 등이 참여한 1,700만 달러 규모의 프리A 라운드 투자를 유치하며 법정화폐 포트폴리오와 라이선스를 확장했습니다. 2024년 5월에는 XREX 싱가포르가 싱가포르 통화청으로부터 주요 결제 기관(MPI) 라이선스를 획득하여 규제된 국경 간 결제 및 디지털 결제 토큰 서비스를 제공할 수 있게 되었습니다. 2024년 6월, XREX는 사기 방지 및 자금 세탁 방지를 위한 블록체인 지갑 조회 도구인 XRAY를 출시했으며, 초기에는 LINE 챗봇 형태로 제공되고 웹 버전과 API도 계획 중입니다. 이러한 이정표들은 XREX가 스타트업에서 규제를 준수하는 핀테크 기업으로 발전하며 컴플라이언스 및 RegTech 역량을 강화하고 있음을 보여줍니다.
On August 4, 2026 Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission said the first phase of the virtual asset travel rule would take effect in October for transfers between domestic service providers; XREX Exchange adopted it that month, so inbound transfers from other providers require the sender to submit recipient details, and the exchange must identify the source onchain, match the data and screen the sender before crediting. On September 1 XREX Group won the Regulatory Excellence award at the inaugural AFA Awards, chosen from 88 nominations with one winner in each of five categories.
Its three business lines are the Taiwan exchange, XREX Pay in Singapore with a Major Payment Institution licence for cross-border stablecoin payments, and the anti-fraud tool XRAY, which offers free wallet risk lookups returning the associated platform, risk labels and asset types within a second and has recently added AI to speed up fund-flow analysis.
XREX builds a cross-border stablecoin clearing network starting from Singapore, focuses the Taiwan exchange on genuine local trading demand, and deepens bank and broker partnerships while the virtual asset service act moves through the legislature.
