Crypto.com Taps Compliance Expert to Lead Cyprus Unit Amid Expansion Push
Crypto.com has appointed Stelios Moyseos as the Executive Director of its Cyprus entity, adding a seasoned compliance and regulatory specialist to its European leadership team.
Moyseos was previously at retail broker BDSwiss, where he served as Chief Compliance and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Officer. The broker had restructured its business model back in 2024, but CySEC, the local regulator, withdrew its license a year later due to prolonged inactivity.
Crypto.com's appointment comes as it actively expands its European footprint. In 2025, the crypto exchange acquired CySEC-regulated A.N. Allnew Investments Ltd, which operated the LegacyFX trading brand. This move granted Crypto.com a Cyprus Investment Firm licence under the EU's MiFID regime.
This acquisition is part of a broader industry trend, with global crypto exchanges seeking to secure EU-wide licenses by acquiring established local brokers. Kraken followed a similar path, naming regulatory technology expert Andreas Roussos to head its Cyprus operations.
