Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek said:

“The European market is critical to Crypto.com’s long-term growth and success and we are extremely proud to now be registered in France by the AMF. We look forward to continuing to work with the AMF and ACPR as we introduce our products and services in France, offering users a comprehensive, safe and secure crypto platform.”

This is a remarkable development for Crypto.com as it moves into France. The company is focused on active growth and expansion of its ecosystem. With over 50 million users worldwide, the crypto platform is one of the fastest growing platforms in the industry. In addition, the recent approval Crypto.com received in France adds to its licensing momentum. The company got the green light from the Monetary Authority of Singapore in June. The approval was for its Major Payment Institute license, allowing the platform to offer payment services to its Singaporean customers. In announcing the achievement, Marszalek said Crypto.com would continue to strengthen its roots in Singapore. He called the country “thriving market for fintech innovation, known for its well-regulated business environment.“
