Bitnovo, one of the most known companies within the payment gateway segment in Europe, has obtained a license to operate in the Netherlands.
The financial authority of the Netherlands known as De Nederlandsche Bank, DNB, has granted Bitnovo a license to operate under the Virtual Assets Provider registry.
Aitor Ibarrola, the Chief Operating Officer of Bitnovo, explained that the authorization obtained is a significant step for the company’s expansion in Europe, emphasizing that large companies like Binance have not obtained this type of license.
In November of last year, the company obtained authorization to operate in France, and the authorization obtained in the Netherlands is part of the company’s expansion plan in the European continent, currently being highlighted as one of the main crypto companies in Spain.
In this sense, we will see how Bitnovo is positioning itself as one of the leading crypto payment gateways in the European region.

Another of the main factors behind the crypto adoption in the country is the low interest rates on savings accounts and dissatisfaction with negative interest rates has motivated investors to seek alternatives in the crypto market.
