币界网报道：Bitstamp has obtained a Major Payment Institution license from Singapore's central bank, allowing the crypto exchange to offer digital payment token services in the city-state. The approval comes amid a broader regulatory crackdown in the region, with Singapore tightening rules on crypto firms to enhance consumer protection. Bitstamp CEO Jean-Baptiste Graftieaux stated the license reinforces the company's commitment to compliance as it expands in Asia. The exchange, one of the oldest in crypto, has been actively pursuing regulatory approvals globally, including recent registrations in Europe. Singapore remains a key hub for crypto firms despite stricter oversight, with several major players securing licenses this year.
