Halima Murunga (
@HalimaMurunga ) walked us through COMPLIANCE INFO SESSION FOR WEB3 FOUNDERS, what happens when a product starts moving money and suddenly finds itself under the attention of banks, payment providers, and compliance teams.
Some of the key points covered included:
• How banks evaluate Web3 products and financial risk.
• Compliance considerations around stablecoins, payouts, and money movement.
• Why "we're just an API layer" isn't always a sufficient answer.
• Common mistakes that can create regulatory exposure for startups.
• What AML and compliance teams pay attention to when reviewing transaction flows
• When a software product starts being treated like financial infrastructure
The session was practical, direct, and grounded in the realities of building in African markets where regulation, payments, and digital assets increasingly intersect.
