Dutch cryptocurrency trading platform Finst has announced some good news. Recently, it completed Series A funding, totaling 8 million euros, led by investment firm Endeit Capital, with several veteran investors also participating.

More importantly, Finst has obtained a MiCAR-related license issued by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM)—in the European regulatory framework, this license is quite valuable. With this license in place, the company's future actions will be more confident.

After securing funding, Finst plans to take a three-pronged approach: continue expanding in the European market, upgrade its product features, and deepen its services for institutional-grade digital assets. It seems they are targeting the high-end market aimed at professional investors.

8 million euros is not really a lot, but this MiCAR license is indeed valuable. European regulatory-friendly projects are very scarce. Institutional-grade services sound good, but I wonder if they can truly attract large capital. Finst is aiming for a compliant route this time—safe but also easily overtaken. I'm optimistic about the license; it's much more reliable than burning money to expand territory. Europe currently has only these few compliant exchanges, and now there's another competitor... Wait, who is Endeit Capital? Never heard of it. The three-pronged approach sounds impressive, but whether all can be done well is another story.
