Mission
dVASP.com exists to make complex decentralized virtual-asset service models easier to describe, review, and govern. The site focuses on the connection between technology and accountability: user journeys, contracts, keys, interfaces, entities, DAOs, fees, operations, data, risk, and jurisdiction.
What “dVASP” means here
The term is a working shorthand for a decentralized VASP model under analysis. It does not assert that every DeFi protocol, DAO, interface, developer, wallet, or contributor is a virtual asset service provider. It also does not describe a license, accreditation, standard, or product offered by this website.
Who the material is for
Builders and operators
Product managers, engineers, security teams, protocol contributors, foundations, and operations teams who need accurate control and transaction maps.
Risk and review teams
Compliance, risk, audit, governance, research, and legal professionals who need a reproducible factual record and implementation vocabulary.
