The U.S.-based exchange Gemini noted for its expansion in Europe is pursuing tokenization of Michael Saylor’s Strategy stock. This initiative marks a strategic push under the EU's MiCA framework, highlighting Malta's importance as Gemini's EU hub.
Potential Gains and Challenges for Europe’s Crypto Market
Gemini's strategic push into Europe could elevate Bitcoin adoption amongst corporates. Stakeholders watch potential regulatory challenges and technological shifts impacting crypto ecosystems in the EU. Regulatory changes within MiCA may reshape EU crypto markets, creating business opportunities and encouraging innovative financial products.
