Zodia Markets Becomes Ireland’s Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) – Crypto in the Land of Shamrocks!

Standard Chartered-Backed Zodia Markets Gains Registered Status in Ireland

Standard Chartered-backed Zodia Markets gets registered in Ireland.

In a nutshell, folks, Zodia Markets has just hopped onto the green bandwagon! Ireland’s central bank has bestowed upon them the prestigious title of Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP). But what does that really mean? Well, it’s like getting a golden ticket to offer over-the-counter (OTC) trading and exchange services to the big guys – the institutional clients. Talk about hitting the jackpot!

And this isn’t their first rodeo, my friends. Zodia Markets has already received similar blessings in the UK last year and just last month in the cool sands of Abu Dhabi. But guess what? They’re not stopping there! They’ve decided to park their crypto-mobile right in the heart of the European Union (EU) by getting themselves a licensed entity. And no, it’s not just to experience some kebabs and baguettes in Paris or Berlin, though that’s always a good selling point.

You see, with the forthcoming implementation of the EU’s Markets in Cryptoassets Regulation (MiCA), things are about to get a whole lot easier for crypto firms to spread their wings across the EU. It’s like having a “one-size-fits-all” permission slip to operate in all 27 EU member states. One license to rule them all! It’s crypto-chocolates for everyone!

Now, why on earth would Zodia Markets choose Ireland as their new crypto haven? Well, it could have something to do with Ireland’s favorable tax regime. It seems crypto firms can’t resist the allure of low taxes. Even Coinbase (COIN), one of the big guns in the crypto world, recently declared Ireland as its EU hub. Pot of gold, anyone?

So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen! Zodia Markets is now set to paint the Irish crypto landscape green with its alluring services. And it’s not just about making a quick buck; they truly believe in driving institutional access to the Polkadot ecosystem. They’re like the crypto-enablers of the digital realm!

Do you think Zodia Markets will succeed in their Irish crypto adventures? Are you excited about the EU’s unified crypto regulations? Let us know in the comments below, and don’t forget to grab your lucky four-leaf clover before diving into the crypto whirlpool!

We will continue to update Blocking; if you have any questions or suggestions, please contact us!
