Crypto-Broker Instacoins Receives Operating License in Estonia


Instacoins announced Tuesday that it has received licensing approval in Estonia from the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) as a crypto broker.

18 February, 2020 | AtoZ Markets – Instacoins Estonia OÜ, a cryptocurrency brokerage, is pleased to announce it has received an operating license from the Estonian FIU. The company is now fully regulated under Estonian law to provide services of exchanging virtual currency against fiat.

Estonia toughens crypto regulation

Last year, Estonia tightened its regulations on preventing money laundering and criminal activities in connection with crypto-currencies and licensing virtual currency service providers.  Following these measures, the Estonian licence has re-enforced its status as one of the most sought-after licences in the crypto space.

"We are extremely delighted to be granted this prestigious license, as it marks the next step of our development. Our mission has always been that of providing a reliable, trustworthy and transparent product and user-experience, and being granted this license continues to prove how much we take security seriously," says Instacoins CEO Jean Paul Bonnici.

Instacoins meets FIU requirements to receive the license

In order to be granted an operating license, the FIU scrutinizes the company owners' criminal history record, as well as the company's due diligence and anti-money laundering procedural rules and internal auditing rules.
