Another big step for global recognition: "Currency.com" (trading platform) receives Gibraltar licence

Today we are happy to announce that Currency.com reached another significant milestone and received the distributed ledger technology licence from the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC).

The licence allows the company to use distributed ledger technology for storing or transmitting value belonging to others, in connection with the provision of dealer and custody services. 

From the very first days of its existence, Currency.com has proved to be a trustworthy fully-regulated tokenised assets platform operating under the dedicated legislation of the Republic of Belarus for cryptocurrencies, ICOs and smart contracts and compliant with the best-in-class AML and KYC laws.

This new achievement provides yet another hallmark of quality for Currency.com, contributing to its global recognition and building trust among the crypto traders’ community around the world.

“Our operations in Gibraltar are part of our commitment to expanding across the globe, offering a blockchain-backed, highly regulated and secure service designed to give customers the flexibility they’ve been looking for.

“The Gibraltar Financial Services Commission is composed of sharp-minded, informed individuals, who are at the forefront of regulating complicated emerging industries.

“Gibraltar has been working on financial regulation in this area for many years and has a strict application process for crypto companies. Our Gibraltar licence is an important endorsement for the platform and further confirms our adherence to the most stringent standards, providing the highest level of safety and security for our traders,” said Jonathan Squires, Currency.com’s CEO.
