Regulatory Classification & Definitions
WeFi is a Technology Company
WeFi is not a licensed bank, nor does it provide banking services directly to end users. WeFi is a technology company that develops and provides on-chain infrastructure, software solutions, and modular protocols enabling independent third-party service providers to design, launch, and operate financial products in compliance with applicable regulations.
The Nature of Deobanks
A Deobank (Decentralized Onchain Banking Platform) is a financial services company that operates on top of the WeChain network using the Deobank Model.
Not Necessarily a Bank: A Deobank is not required to be a traditional licensed bank. It may be a fintech, payment network, custodian, or other financial institution.
Regulatory Requirements: While "Deobank" and "neobank" are often used as marketing terms to describe modern, digital-first financial experiences, these entities must hold the appropriate authorizations and licenses for the specific services they provide (e.g., payment services, e-money issuance, money services, or crypto-asset service provider licenses).
Service Responsibility: All regulated financial activities—including but not limited to safeguarding funds, processing payments, and identity verification (KYC)—are the sole responsibility of the respective Deobank and its licensed partners.
Etymology of Deobank
The use of the term “Deobank” does not imply that WeFi is a regulated credit institution, deposit-taking institution, or financial intermediary. The term is used in a descriptive, conceptual, and technological sense only.
The word “bank” is widely used in the English language in contexts entirely unrelated to licensed financial institutions. For example: • Data bank – a structured repository of information • Seed bank – a storage facility preserving biological material • Memory bank – a collection of stored digital or human memories • Food bank – a charitable distribution center • Power bank – a portable energy storage device • Time bank – a community-based exchange system • Idea bank – a collection of concepts or proposals
In each of these examples, the word “bank” refers broadly to a repository, pool, storage mechanism, or structured aggregation system -not to a licensed financial institution.
Similarly, “Deobank” is intended to describe a decentralized technological repository and protocol layer for digital financial infrastructure. It refers to an architectural framework facilitating programmable asset management and financial interoperability within decentralized networks.
