Blockchain.com Secures FCA Registration, Expands UK Crypto Services
- Blockchain.com has obtained registration from the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to offer crypto brokerage, custody, and institutional services.
- The firm processed over $1.2 trillion in transactions and served 90 million wallets globally since its founding in York in 2011.
- Following its MiCA license in Europe, Blockchain.com is now positioned to operate across major regulated markets in both the UK and European Economic Area.
- Blockchain.com plans to apply for full authorization under the UK’s upcoming comprehensive crypto regulatory regime set for launch in 2027.
Blockchain.com’s registration with the FCA allows it to enhance customer protection and oversight under one of the world’s strictest regulatory frameworks. This strategic move follows its MiCA license acquisition last year, enabling operations across Europe.
With these regulatory approvals, Blockchain.com is set to expand its presence in key markets, enhancing service offerings and ensuring compliance with stringent standards. Source
