Brokerage group Capital.com has acquired a Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) license in Cyprus.
The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission’s (CySEC) website shows that the broker was approved to provide crypto services in the European Union at the start of December.
CySEC’s website lists the broker as having a URL called capitalvault.com, although the broker is also listed as having Capital.com as one of its approved domains.
The broker joins eToro and Revolut as the only other retail-facing investment provider to have a MiCAR license in Cyprus.
The wider Capital.com group of companies used to operate Gibraltar-regulated Currency.com. However, that firm was sold off to CXNEST last year.
Currently Capital.com only offers CFDs and knock-outs to traders in the EU, although the broker told us last year that it plans on expanding its range of products.
