KuCoin EU Secures MiCA License in Austria, Expands European Crypto Services
KuCoin EU has obtained a Markets in crypto Assets (MiCA) license from Austria’s Financial Market Authority, enabling regulated operations across 29 European Economic Area countries. The license excludes Malta but positions KuCoin for streamlined expansion under Europe’s unified crypto framework.
Vienna’s early MiCA implementation and DEEP fintech talent pool made Austria a strategic choice. The regulatory clarity comes as European authorities intensify oversight, with MiCA standardizing reporting, investor protections, and operational practices for licensed firms.
