Overview

TRUST, formerly known as the US Travel Rule Working Group (USTRWG), was founded by a group of US-based VASPs to implement and comply with the Travel Rule. It has recently been expanded to include non-US VASPs to solve the broader FATF Travel Rule. TRUST is a solution used to identify transaction counterparties and securely transmit information between members.
