最新报道:Kraken has obtained a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulations, allowing it to expand its services across Europe. The license, granted by the Central Bank of Ireland, enables Kraken to offer exchange and wallet services to customers in the 27 EU member states. This regulatory approval positions Kraken as one of the first major global crypto exchanges to comply with MiCA, which aims to standardize crypto regulations across the bloc. David Ripley, Kraken's CEO, emphasized the company's commitment to regulatory compliance and its plans to further engage with European regulators. The MiCA framework, set to fully take effect in December 2024, requires crypto firms to secure authorization from at least one EU national regulator to operate across the region. Kraken's Irish entity will serve as its European hub, reinforcing its presence in the region amid increasing regulatory scrutiny.
