Monetary Authority of Singapore Revokes Bsquared Technology Payment License

According to the new report, MAS revoked Bsquared Technology’s license effective May 14, 2026 after finding false statements and serious regulatory breaches, reinforcing Singapore’s strict compliance standards for crypto-related payment firms.

Fact Check
The claim is fully corroborated by the primary authoritative source: the official MAS press release at mas.gov.sg confirms that MAS revoked Bsquared Technology's Major Payment Institution Licence effective May 14, 2026, explicitly citing false or misleading statements provided to MAS and multiple serious regulatory breaches. The crypto.news article independently corroborates the same facts. All key claim elements - the regulator (MAS), the entity (Bsquared Technology), the action (licence revocation), the effective date (May 14, 2026), the grounds (false statements and serious regulatory breaches), and the regulatory context (crypto-related payment firm under Singapore's Payment Services Act) - are directly confirmed by the MAS official press release.
