A way to increase Coinbase’s presence in Europe
These last months, Coinbase has it both ways. On the one hand, the company is struggling to try to convince the American regulators to establish a clear regulatory framework, which is not easy, and on the other, it is diversifying its activities at the global level in order not to no longer be so dependent on the United States.
While Bitpanda already has a solid foundation in Europe at the regulatory levelfor example through its registration as a digital asset service provider (PSAN) in France, Coinbase will be able to reap the benefits.
Indeed, thanks to this agreement, the exchange will be able to redirect its institutional customers to Bitpanda Technology Solutions, for which it provides liquidity, thus creating synergies between the two companies.
This collaboration is interesting, because by having more liquidity, Bitpanda could be able to reach larger players, such as commercial banks wishing to offer services related to cryptocurrencies, thus accelerating mainstream adoption.
However, it will be necessary to qualify, by adding that with the multiplication of trusted third parties for the same service, this increases the risk of contagion in the event of a problem. We have seen this time and time again, especially with Gemini’s Earn product, affected by the bankruptcy of Genesis, itself affected by FTX.
