Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, received regulatory approval from the Dutch central bank on Thursday, allowing it to eventually offer services throughout the European Union. By registering with De Nederlandsche Bank, Coinbase will be able to offer cryptocurrency products and services to Dutch consumers and enterprises. Following that, once the EU’s markets in crypto assets (MiCA) rule takes effect, Coinbase will be able to provide crypto trading services in the remaining 26 EU countries. Coinbase is the latest to follow the footsteps of competitor crypto exchanges Binance, which is registered in France, and Bitstamp, which is registered in Italy, in obtaining regulatory permission in various European countries this year.
