Bybit Secures VASP License in Georgia, Boosting Compliance

Bybit, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, has secured a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license from Georgia’s National Bank, reinforcing its commitment to regulatory compliance across international markets. This latest license follows Bybit’s recent approvals in the Netherlands and Kazakhstan, further underscoring the company’s ongoing global expansion and adherence to local regulations.

Announced in a press release on Nov. 5, the VASP license grants Bybit authorization to operate within Georgia’s developing crypto ecosystem. This move aligns with Bybit’s broader vision of fostering crypto-enabled economic growth in emerging markets. Bybit’s CEO, Ben Zhou, emphasized that this registration reflects the platform’s dedication to “providing users in Georgia with a secure and compliant platform, further contributing to the region’s ambition of becoming a hotbed for blockchain innovation.”
