KuCoin EU is setting up in Vienna, Austria, to expand across the EEA with a MiCAR license. With top crypto execs onboard, they’re pushing for secure, compliant, and innovative crypto services in Europe.
KuCoin is taking big steps in Europe! The global crypto exchange is applying for a MiCAR license in Austria to expand its services across all 30 EU and EEA countries. With this license, KuCoin EU will offer secure, trustworthy crypto services that comply with European regulations.
Austria’s Vienna was selected as the European headquarters for KuCoin due to its firm legal landscape, clear crypto regulations, and accessibility of elite personnel. KuCoin is also conducting recruitment efforts in order to have a solid regional team.
KuCoin EU will abide by all laws when it comes to providing leading digital asset solutions, CEO BC Wong announced. Under the MiCAR license, users in the EU will receive secure and localized crypto services from KuCoin.
For this project, KuCoin has appointed Oliver Stauber (former Bitpanda) and Christian Niedermueller (former CEO of a cryptocurrency exchange) as Managing Directors, with exhaustive experience in finance and law, including aspects that guarantee compliance and growth within Europe.
Both these MDs, after the approval, will enhance the EU’s presence in the international crypto markets, accelerate blockchain adoption while assuring transparency, security, and innovation.
