The Amsterdam-based exchange, set to launch in the second financial quarter of 2024, has secured the money as it works to establish a foothold in the European market. The company bills itself as the first regulated crypto derivatives trading platform to operate seven days per week in the EU, focusing on serving institutional investors.
D2X's new license, issued by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), will enable the exchange to operate under MiCA, the EU’s regulatory framework for digital assets. According to the EU's webpage , the fresh framework goes into full effect at the end of this year.
