Gemini has achieved a significant milestone by securing a Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) license from the Malta Financial Services Authority. This approval marks a transformative step in the company’s European expansion, allowing Gemini to offer secure and regulated cryptocurrency services across all 30 European Union member states and associated jurisdictions under a harmonized regulatory framework.

The MiCA license allows Gemini to expand its reach to both retail and institutional clients, delivering consistent and reliable crypto products throughout Europe. The unified guidelines established under the MiCA framework enable the exchange to introduce new services—including derivatives and tokenized stock products—while ensuring high standards of consumer protection and regulatory compliance.

This license builds on Gemini’s previous acquisition of an Investment Firm license under MiFID II, empowering the company to provide derivatives trading and further diversify its offerings. These regulatory achievements make Gemini one of the few fully compliant crypto trading venues in the EU, positioning it as a leader in a rapidly evolving market.

Gemini’s commitment to regulatory clarity and transparency demonstrates its dedication to supporting the development of Europe’s digital asset ecosystem. As crypto regulation in the EU matures, Gemini’s early compliance and robust infrastructure place it at the forefront of innovation and institutional adoption, unlocking new opportunities for growth and investment across the region.
