Zhiyuan Sun8 hours agoKraken secures money license registrations in Spain and IrelandThe move follows the crypto exchange’s successful VASP registration in Italy.1166 Total views18 Total sharesNewsJoin us on social networksCryptocurrency exchange Kraken has received an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license from the Central Bank of Ireland and a virtual asset service provider (VASP) registration from the Bank of Spain.


According to the Sept. 26 announcement, the EMI license enables Kraken to expand euro-to-crypto trading services to 27 European Union member states and European Economic Area countries. Meanwhile, the VASP registration in Spain allows Kraken to offer exchange and wallet custodial services to Spanish residents. The firm is also registered as a VASP in Italy and Ireland.


Kraken’s vice president of global operations, Curtis Ting, commented: “We see a firm foundation for crypto in Europe, which has forward-looking regulation that enables us to grow with confidence.” The platform currently supports over 200 trading pairs across six fiat currencies — the British pound, euro, U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Swiss franc and Australian dollar.


On Sept. 21, Cointelegraph reported that Kraken was sued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) over allegations that its Australian subsidiary, Bit Trade, failed to make market determinations before offering margin trading services. Jonathon Miller, managing director of Kraken’s Australian operations, said that ASIC’s move came as a surprise, as he believed Bit Trade was abiding by local regulations.


Earlier this year, Kraken applied for restricted dealer registration in Canada to comply with new rules requiring all VASPS to register with securities administrators or face expulsion. Exchanges Binance and OKX left Canada following the new rules.
