San Francisco - TRM Labs, the leading provider of crypto fraud detection and anti-money laundering (AML) software, is pleased to announce that Patrick South will join its Business Development team.

Mr. South brings a wealth of experience in the business development space and an expertise in and passion for cryptocurrency businesses.  Prior to joining TRM, Mr. South was Chief Development Officer at the Chamber of Digital Commerce, where he grew the advocacy association's membership base to include global financial services entities, leading cryptocurrency businesses, and some of the largest professional services firms. In addition to development, Mr. South focused on organizational strategy and member relations. Prior to his experience at the Chamber, Mr. South was an Executive at Accenture, where he managed a portfolio of programs across the defense and intelligence sectors and oversaw their federal blockchain practice.

"I could not be more excited to join TRM Labs as it works to build a safer financial system for billions of people," said Mr. South.

Mr. South joins the TRM team as cryptocurrency adoption accelerates worldwide, including experiencing significant growth among traditional institutional investors.

In September 2020, stablecoins and digital dollars reached 200 billion in monthly on-chain USD volume, nearly 700% more than the same period the year prior.
