The META Channel Solution Architecture<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 40px;\">A comprehensive regulatory compliance program was carried out within the Execution dimension of the ORBITAL PACT. This was not simply the delivery of a recommendations report; the necessary changes to processes, technology and documentation were implemented to achieve full MiCA and GDPR compliance, aligning operations, product and data governance.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #2563eb; text-transform: uppercase; font-size: 18px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">4.
