Cryptocurrency and tokenized asset exchange Currency.com set its foot in the United States following registration with the Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) as a money services business.

In an announcement shared with Benzinga on Thursday, Currency.com announced that it will launch in 48 states and territories across the United States and facilitate the acquisition, storage, and investment in cryptocurrencies. Currency.com CEO Steve Gregory said this brings the platform to “one of the world’s most mature cryptocurrency markets.”
