Ripple obtains virtual asset service provider registration from Central Bank of Ireland

Ripple announced that its Irish subsidiary, Ripple Markets Ireland Limited (Ripple markets), has been added to the Central Bank of Ireland's (CBI) register of virtual asset service providers (VASPs). This decision will support Ripple in providing specific digital asset services in Ireland.

After registration, Ripple will seek to provide services to clients across the entire European Economic Area once the Market in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA) comes into effect at the end of 2024, subject to obtaining any other necessary licenses.
