Crypto Firm Gemini Secures MiFID II License From Malta to Offer Derivatives in EEA

  • Gemini, the cryptocurrency platform established by the Winklevoss twins, obtained a MiFID II license from Malta on May 9, 2025, enabling it to offer derivative products within the European Economic Area.
  • This license follows Malta's initial approval months earlier and aligns with a broader trend of crypto firms seeking regulatory clarity in Europe.
  • The license granted by the Malta Financial Services Authority permits Gemini to provide perpetual futures and a range of derivative products throughout the EU’s 27 member countries, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway, once all regulatory requirements are satisfied.
  • Gemini indicated that it is undertaking the necessary technical and operational preparations to introduce these offerings in a secure and regulatory-aligned way, targeting a rollout within the next few months, while Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer noted that related market activity has secured a strong position for the company in the derivatives sector.
  • The MiFID II license advances Gemini's 2025 European expansion plan by bringing regulated derivatives closer to both retail and institutional customers across the EU and EEA markets.
