Crypto.com Receives License in Ireland
Crypto.com received approval from the Central Bank of Ireland (CBI) as a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) in June. This approval allows the company to expand its offerings in Ireland, including crypto-to-fiat exchanges and fiat wallets.
With this approval, Crypto.com joined other major crypto firms regulated by the CBI, such as Coinbase, Ripple, Gemini, MoonPay, and Zodia Custody. This inclusion demonstrated the growing acceptance and regulation of digital assets within the country.
As of June 7, Ireland has approved 15 entities as VASPs, highlighting the country’s progressive approach to the digital asset industry. In 2024 alone, the CBI has approved four new VASPs: Foris DAX Global, Fortuna Digital Custody, Ramp Swaps, and Crypto.com.
The company was also “deemed to be licensed” in Hong Kong. According to the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), only two exchanges are currently licensed to provide services to retail investors.
Crypto.com was founded in Hong Kong in 2016 and is now based in Singapore. It is the largest crypto exchange by trading volume and is seeking a license from the SFC.
