Binance is partnering with Blockshoals Technologies Inc. under the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission’s Strategic Sandbox (StratBox) framework. Blockshoals serves as the approved local intermediary within the Crypto Asset Intermediary structure, providing a domestic compliance anchor. Binance contributes global technology, security, operational systems, and compliance capabilities to support a supervised digital-asset testing model. The partnership aims to test a Philippine platform experience in a controlled environment before broader rollout. The initial phase follows Blockshoals’ approved testing plan, then moves toward product configurations tailored for Philippine users. Sandbox testing is expected to begin in the second half of 2026 and continue for at least two years.
