„Altcoin“ naujienos- The USDC issuer reportedly kept recruiting new staff members in Singapore.
- Stablecoin issuer, Paxos, acquired the same digital-token payment services license.
Singapūro pinigų institucija (DAUGIAU) has given Circle Internet Financial, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, preliminary clearance to hold a Major Payments Institution License. The firm will serve the city-state with its digital payment token products, international and domestic transfer services, and more. In addition, Ratas hopes to promote the use of USD Coin (USDC) by financial institutions in the defi and Web3 markets in Singapore.
Circle, in a press release dated November 2, announced the company’s accomplishment of a Major Payments Institution License from the MAS, allowing the company to provide cryptocurrency services, such as digital payment token products and cross-border and domestic transfer services in Singapore.
Singapore Considered Key Market
Circle has previously named Singapore as an Asian hub for the cryptocurrency industry due to the city’s status as a significant financial hub. The USDC issuer reportedly kept recruiting new staff members in Singapore. Meanwhile, rules are being tightened by the MAS, which only last month issued licenses to cryptocurrency businesses like Coinbase and Blockchain.com.
Circle’s chief strategy officer Dante Disparte stated:
“This milestone enables us to work with all relevant stakeholders and demonstrate the potential of digital currencies, open payment systems and innovation-forward fintech regulations to drive economic growth and strengthen Singapore’s position as a global hub for digital assets.”
Circle executives Jeremy Allaire and Dante Disparte will discuss the future of digital assets at the Singapore Fintech Festival on November 2-4. Additionally, on the first day of the Singapore Fintech Festival, another stablokinas issuer, Paxos, acquired the same digital-token payment services license from the MAS.
