  • Coinbase secured UK approval with a VASP registration, allowing it to offer crypto and fiat services.
  • The platform is expanding globally, recently launching services in Argentina and reviving Bitcoin loans in the U.S.
  • Regulatory shifts worldwide are paving the way for broader crypto adoption and industry growth.

In a major win for Coinbase, the crypto exchange has officially secured regulatory approval to offer crypto services in the UK. The company announced it received its Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration, clearing a significant hurdle in a market known for its strict regulations.

This approval positions Coinbase as one of the few firms—just 145 applicants have succeeded—to meet the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) high standards. The platform can now provide both cryptocurrency and fiat services to UK investors, reinforcing its global leadership in the crypto industry.

Coinbase’s International Expansion Continues

Coinbase has had a whirlwind start to the year. Recently, it relaunched its Bitcoin loan services for U.S. customers and announced regulatory approval to offer crypto services in Argentina. Now, the UK market is the next milestone in its ongoing expansion.

The company stated that this approval is a crucial step toward achieving its mission to “onboard the next 1 billion people into crypto.” With its VASP registration, Coinbase is now the largest registered digital asset platform in the UK, strengthening its global presence at a time when crypto regulations are shifting in favor of growth.

A Growing Trend of Pro-Crypto Policies

The approval reflects a larger trend as crypto-friendly policies gain traction worldwide. In recent months, U.S. regulatory frameworks have shown increased openness to digital assets, signaling a broader acceptance of crypto as a legitimate financial sector. Coinbase’s success in navigating these global markets demonstrates how the industry is breaking into more traditional financial strongholds.
