At the beginning of December 2023, the REAL-TOK real estate token, which we placed on the black compliance list, was listed on the P2B crypto exchange. , is a security token (and probably also a scam) and would require regulatory approval. This permission is required not only by the issuer of the token but also by the exchange on which it is traded. This is the P2B crypto exchange.
Key takeaways
- P2B is a crypto exchange evidently controlled by Ukrainian people via offices in Ukraine and Spain
- The crypto exchange does not provide required information on its website;
- We have downgraded this P2B from Orange to Red Compliance due to regulatory issues

The P2B Compliance Check
A Similarweb analysis shows that almost 5.3 million people visited the P2B website in the last 28 days before Jan 9, 2024. The website or the Terms do not refer to Partida UAB and the registration in Lithuania. There are various operators, such as Smart Digital Solutions Limited, Digital One Software Limited or Finpeaks LLC in St. Vincent & The Grenadines. But no Partida. That is a red flag.
Partida UAB d/b/a P2B is registered in Lithuania as a crypto service business and can, therefore, be active in other jurisdictions of the EU via passporting. In P2B terms, the competent jurisdiction is England and Wales, which seems strange because none of the operating companies is registered there.
In our compliance check on Jan 14, 2024, we were able to register with P2B without any issues. While we still found Advcash as a payment processor in our review in October 2023, it is no longer available in our new review from January 14, 2024. Apparently, P2B has parted ways with this Russian payment processor.
P2B has connected MoonPay and Simplex (by Nuvei) as partners for credit card payments. Also, with credit/debit cards, pre-KYC purchases of cryptocurrencies were possible up to $12,000 with MoonPay and $20,000 with Simplex. That is a red flag. Unlimited pre-KYC deposits would have been equally possible via cryptocurrencies. That’s another red flag.
The listing of security tokens such as REAL-TOK that have been issued without regulatory approval and are also classified by us as scams is another red flag.
We have downgraded P2B to Red Compliance because of its KYC issuances.
