The post Gemini Exchange Expands in Europe with Malta MiCA License appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, has taken another big step in Europe. The company has now secured a Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) license in Malta, a move that strengthens its position as one of the most regulated players in the industry.
Gemini Receives Malta MiCA License
Gemini has received approval from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) under Europe’s new Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). This license allows the exchange to offer crypto services across more than 30 European countries with a single approval.
Malta will now serve as Gemini’s main hub in Europe, supporting its expansion in the region.
The MiCA license shows that Gemini is meeting strict European rules for crypto companies, aiming to keep customers safe and to prevent fraud or abuse in crypto trading.
It gives Gemini the freedom to grow safely in Europe, reaching millions of new customers with a trusted, regulated platform.
Gemini’s Focus on Regulation
In a statement, Gemini said the new approval reflects its long-standing commitment to compliance and regulation.
Mark Jennings, Head of Europe, called MiCA an important step and said Malta will serve as Gemini’s hub for regulated growth and innovation. He also noted that Europe’s framework could guide global crypto regulation.
In December 2024, Gemini moved its European headquarters to Malta after receiving its sixth MFSA license.
More recently, the exchange also filed to list its Class A shares on the Nasdaq under the ticker GEMI, showing that it is working on multiple fronts to grow its global presence.
