Blockchain.com announced today the official opening of its Malta office, marking the next step in the company’s European expansion and its long-term commitment to building regulated digital asset infrastructure across the region.

The new office will serve as a strategic hub for Blockchain.com’s operations across Europe following the company securing its Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) licence from the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA).

The licence enables Blockchain.com to passport regulated crypto brokerage services across the European Economic Area under the EU’s first comprehensive digital asset regulatory framework.

“We didn’t pick Malta by accident. Malta has taken a thoughtful and forward-looking approach to digital asset regulation,” said Nic Cary, Co-Founder and Vice Chairman at Blockchain.com.

“At Blockchain.com, we’ve spent over a decade building a brand of trust and integrity, and we’re bringing that same professional-grade standard to users across Europe. This office represents our commitment to building trusted, compliant infrastructure for the crypto market.”

Blockchain.com's Malta office will support a range of functions including regulatory engagement, operational development, and retail client services across the European market. The company will soon launch its institutional business, partnering with some of the region’s leading licensed firms. This expansion supports a growing European client base as they increasingly deploy capital into digital assets.

Blockchain.com operates in more than 70 jurisdictions worldwide. Since 2011, Blockchain.com has processed over $1.2 trillion in crypto transactions, created more than 90 million wallets, and verified over 40 million users.

As a global crypto brokerage, Blockchain.com provides individuals and institutions with secure access to digital assets while maintaining a strong commitment to compliance, transparency and security.
