The Swiss cryptocurrency bank AMINA Group's subsidiary AMINA EU has just obtained a MiCA cryptocurrency service provider license issued by the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA). What does this mean? Simply put, it can now legally conduct cryptocurrency trading, custody, portfolio management, and stake services in Europe.
Why choose Austria?
AMINA is focused on Austria's relatively open regulatory environment and the strength of investor protection. Currently, AMINA EU is registered in 13 European countries and plans to cover more than 30 markets in the future. From the combination of Swiss banking genes + Austrian regulatory advantages, they aim to create a bridge connecting traditional finance and the encryption world.
Who are the main services aimed at?
Not retail investors. AMINA EU primarily serves professional investors—family offices, corporations, financial institutions, and qualified clients. In other words, this is institutional-level entry.
What is the meaning?
MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) is the world's first unified regulatory framework for encryption. The fact that AMINA has obtained this license indicates that the demand for institutional-level encryption services is growing in Europe. Coupled with licenses from Switzerland, Hong Kong, and Abu Dhabi, AMINA Group is building a global encryption financial infrastructure. For the industry, this marks the increasing formalization of encryption services.
