SC’s Investor Alert List<\/a>. DEX is a peer-to-peer exchange that allows individuals to swap digital assets directly with one another without an intermediary.<\/p>\nIn a statement today, the SC also stated that it is seeking the assistance of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to block RimauSwap\u2019s website.<\/p>\n
The SC further stated that it has not authorised any DEX operators in Malaysia and cautioned members of the public to not deal with unregistered entities operating a DEX in Malaysia.<\/p>\n
Operating a DEX without registration with the SC is an offence under the Malaysian securities laws.<\/p>\n
Members of the public can report any suspicious activities, websites and investment opportunities to the SC\u2019s Consumers and Investors Department at tel: 03-6204 8999 or e-mail: aduan@seccom.com.my.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
