Webull EU has obtained a MiCA license from the Dutch regulator, according to a report by Finance Magnates cited by ChainCatcher.

Webull said it plans to use the license to roll out crypto trading and custody services in Europe by the end of 2026. Andries van Luijk, CEO of Webull Securities (Europe), said the approval marks a key milestone in the company’s European expansion and will allow it to offer what he described as “safe and compliant digital asset services” under the EU’s unified regulatory framework. The report also said the number of licensed crypto firms in Europe is now close to 200 following MiCA’s implementation.
