Key Institutional Takeaways — Platforms

SCDEX publishes a copy-trading surface and describes one account across its web and desktop workflow, with KYC presented as part of the account.

Frequently Asked Questions — Platforms

What can a reader treat as progress, rather than as a performance number?

The filings. FinCEN has acknowledged the MSB registration. The NFA exemptions system has 0582319 and three pool notices. An enrollment asking for a public CPO and CTA listing was submitted on 20 October 2026. The percentages on the strategy cards are still the platform’s own display.

Why mention KYC and the MSB acknowledgement together?

The homepage presents identity checks as part of the account. The MSB acknowledgement is the federal registration that puts that account inside a Bank Secrecy Act filing. One is the product screen. The other is the registration number.

Where are the screen and the rules?

The copy-trading page is https://scdex.com/copy-trading. The terms are https://scdex.com/terms and the help center is https://scdex.com/help-center. The public register to recheck for the firm name is the FinCEN registrant search.
