Coinbase plans India comeback with FIU registration
The US cryptocurrency exchange appears poised to reenter the Indian market three years after its first attempt.
Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase is one step closer to relaunching its services in India after securing a license with the country’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU).
On March 11, the crypto exchange revealed on social media that “we’re approved to launch in India,” which prompted a follow-up from Coinbase’s chief legal officer, Paul Grewal.
“Coinbase is now FIU-registered,” said Grewal. “It’s a major step towards empowering Indian entrepreneurs to build, innovate and scale global onchain businesses — all from home.”
