"As a KoreNode operator, CriticalTech.Exchange actively participates in the governance and endorsement of transactions on the KoreChain."
Platform Charter · Infrastructure Layer

KoreNode operators are the validating participants of KoreChain — the regulated, permissioned ledger underpinning compliant digital securities. Operating a node means CriticalTech.Exchange enforces, endorses, and witnesses every transaction at the protocol layer, alongside other regulated institutions.

Compliance at the Infrastructure Layer

KYC/AML, accreditation, suitability, and bad-actor checks are enforced by the protocol itself — not bolted onto an application. Non-compliant transactions cannot be endorsed.

SEC Rule 17a-4 Recordkeeping

Every order, communication, and ownership event is captured to WORM-grade, audit-ready storage aligned with broker-dealer and transfer agent recordkeeping obligations.

Integrated with KorePay & Transfer Agent

Subscription, escrow, distribution, and dividend flows move through KorePay rails with SEC-registered transfer agent records updated atomically on settlement.

Governance & Endorsement on KoreChain

As a KoreNode operator, CriticalTech.Exchange actively participates in the governance and endorsement of transactions on the KoreChain — a regulated, permissioned ledger purpose-built for securities.
