PIPS STAR's safety as a trading platform is a mixed bag. On one hand, its regulation by FinCEN ensures compliance with basic financial crime prevention standards, which can add some level of legitimacy. On the other hand, FinCEN's role focuses on preventing illegal activities such as money laundering, rather than offering investor protection. Therefore, while PIPS STAR may be considered "legit" in terms of regulatory compliance, traders should be cautious. The lack of stronger investor protections makes PIPS STAR potentially riskier than brokers regulated by more comprehensive authorities like the FCA or ASIC, which provide better safety nets for your funds and offer recourse in case of disputes.
