The firm added: “Launching in these six countries represents further progress in Gemini’s continued roll out across Europe, which is built on a foundation of positive engagement with regulators and policymakers to obtain relevant authorisations and registrations.”

The latest launch comes shortly after the company’s foray into Ireland.

In Ireland, Gemini became the first entity to register with the country’s central bank as a virtual asset service provider (VASP). The company also secured approval to operate as an electronic money institution in the Irish market.

In April this year, Gemini announced a collaboration with Mastercard and WebBank to introduce a new crypto rewards credit card.
