Coinbase has received a license to operate in the offshore haven of Bermuda, signaling that the company is doubling down on plans to increase its international business at a time when U.S. regulators have become hostile to the crypto industry.
The company disclosed in a blog post on Wednesday that it had received the license from the Bermuda Monetary Authority, the island nation's integrated financial regulator, which was one of the first in the world to roll out a comprehensive legal framework for digital assets in 2018.
