Crypto.com has reached a major milestone in its journey toward global compliance and expansion by securing full approval for its MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) license, Â
The approval was received earlier today, January 27th, and positions the company to offer its range of cryptocurrency services across the European Union under a unified regulatory framework.
MiCA License: A Game-Changer for Crypto.com

Eric Anziani, President and COO of Crypto.com, expressed enthusiasm for the regulatory approval. “We have always been fully supportive of MiCA and strongly believe it will bring clarity, transparency, and establish a more streamlined sentiment towards the regulation of our industry across the EU,” he said.Â
Anziani also highlighted the growing importance of the EU as a hub for crypto investment and pledged to ensure compliance as the company continues its expansion.
