Blockchain.com Secures Definitive VASP Licence in Cayman Islands
Blockchain.com has secured a definitive Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) custody licence from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority, expanding its regulated crypto services. The approval allows the company to offer custody, staking, and exchange services in the Cayman Islands.
The licence follows Blockchain.com's recent MiCA approval in Europe and FCA registration in the UK. According to a Thursday announcement from Blockchain.com, the approval grants the company a full VASP custody services licence through its Cayman Islands subsidiary, replacing the conditional approval issued by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA) in December 2025.
The company said it had satisfied all of the regulator's conditions before receiving the definitive licence. The licence authorizes Blockchain.com to provide regulated custody services together with crypto-to-fiat and crypto-to-crypto exchange services in the Cayman Islands.
