KuCoin Expands into the European Market with MiCAR Compliance and Local Leadership

KuCoin, the popular cryptocurrency exchange, has officially secured compliance under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) and is now available to users across the European Economic Area.

To celebrate this milestone, KuCoin hosted a VIP gala in Vienna, Austria, showcasing its commitment to the European market.

With its regulatory standing assured, KuCoin EU plans to offer services including EUR deposits and withdrawals, spot trading, and localized customer support tailored to regional users.

As the platform begins its phased rollout, new features and campaigns exclusive to Europe are also on the horizon.

The choice of Austria as the operational base reflects its supportive regulatory environment, according to KuCoin’s leadership.

Managing Director Christian Niedermueller emphasized that this launch marks the beginning of a long-term commitment to fostering a trusted digital asset ecosystem in Europe.

Under the leadership of newly appointed Managing Director Sabina Liu, KuCoin is poised to align its offerings with the sophisticated needs of European financial markets.

Additionally, KuCoin has announced a strategic partnership with cycling champion Tadej Pogačar, reinforcing its brand visibility and shared values.

This expansion further solidifies KuCoin’s presence, with over 40 million users worldwide and a commitment to sustainable growth.

As the exchange evolves, it aims to enhance user experience while adhering to regulatory standards set forth in the EU.
