Cowrie Administrator Services - Regulatory Compliance for DUNAs

When authorized as administrators, we perform a variety of tasks to facilitate clients' operational and compliance obligations. Unlike managers or officers - we are bound to the limits of our authorizations, ensuring that governance ultimately controls what work is performed.

Entity Onboarding

We craft a regulatory compliance plan tailored for each DUNA.

Our team handles ongoing banking compliance and reporting requirements, including identity verification.

Reliable Execution, Real-World Accountability

We've built our practice from the ground up to meet the specific needs of decentralized organizations launching in the U.S. Our focus is on execution, and we pride ourselves on keeping DUNA operations compliant and auditable from day one.

  • Execution-first. We help protocols launch and evolve as they scale, ensuring continuous compliance as regulations change or responsibilities shift within the DUNA.
  • Aligned Incentives. We structure our compensation in each project's native token and follow a standard lockup period while participating in governance.
  • Secure & Compliant. We use enterprise-grade security and follow regulatory data retention guidance to keep information safe.
