Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss’ cryptocurrency exchange, Gemini, has begun operations in France. The platform achieved this success nearly a year after registering as a Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) with the French market regulator, the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF).
Advanced traders can access over 80 trading pairs and leverage Gemini’s extensive APIs, while institutional investors can benefit from an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and an eOTC system for high-volume transactions.
“France represents a significant opportunity for us, thanks to its supportive regulatory landscape and increasing trust in cryptocurrencies,” said Gillian Lynch, Gemini’s CEO for the UK and Europe.
Ride the wave of regulatory momentum. Gemini’s expansion into France aligns with the European Union’s future cryptocurrency regulation framework, the Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA). The platform’s leadership underlined the importance of clear and consistent legislation, which has already resulted in more confidence among French users than in countries outside the EU.
Gemini expects that by launching, it will be able to grow its footprint in Europe while also providing secure, dependable access to digital asset services for French clients and enterprises. The decision reflects the platform’s commitment to responsible growth in areas with strong cryptocurrency policies.
As Gemini expands its global reach, its primary goal continues to improve user experiences and create trust in the growing cryptocurrency market.
