Hey Nostr! 👋 Pierre here, founder of Simon Consulting. I help Bitcoin firms and VASPs in Europe navigate the regulatory landscape, especially with MiCA. Think of me as your compliance guide. I also run Simon Academy, an online training platform where you can level up your knowledge on all things regulatory – and there's some great free content to get you started! I'm a big believer in Bitcoin and the Lightning Network, and passionate about making Bitcoin mainstream. I regularly post articles about Bitcoin, other virtual assets, and new developments in payments (both fiat and crypto). Excited to be here and connect with the community! Check out my training platform:

Open-source intelligence gathering (OSINT) has become an increasingly valuable tool for compliance professionals, as it allows for the identification of risks and threats to an organization through publicly available sources. Check out our video if you want to learn more:

Compliance training is absolutely essential for reducing risk and fostering a culture of integrity. But let’s be honest: if policies are unclear or buried in a dense handbook, employees won’t follow them. 🔍 Research shows that employees are more likely to adhere to compliance policies when they are concise, well-structured, and easy to understand. Using plain language, real-world examples, and visual aids can increase policy comprehension and reduce compliance violations. Additionally, regularly reinforcing policies through short refreshers or microlearning helps employees retain key information and apply it in their daily work. A well-informed team is a compliant team 💪
