YouHodler Bolsters European Presence with Compliant Web3 Fintech Solutions for Consumers and Enterprises

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Feb. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- YouHodler, a Swiss-based Web3 fintech platform, today announced it has obtained its Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration from the Bank of Spain. With this registration, YouHodler can now provide its suite of innovative Web3 financial services to individual and enterprise users in Spain, in full compliance with the nation's anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CTF) regulations.

The completion of this VASP registration fortifies YouHodler's foothold in Spain and underscores its commitment to compliant and secure Web3 fintech innovation. It complements the company's existing authorizations and licenses across the EU, particularly before the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation takes effect.
