Crypto exchange Bitpanda will "off-board" Dutch residents from its platform to comply with regulations in the Netherlands, the company said in an email Tuesday.
"We do not currently hold a crypto asset services provider registration in the Netherlands or have any intention of applying for one in the near future," a spokesperson for the Vienna-based company said in an email. "We're currently focused on our core markets ... The Netherlands is currently not one of our core markets." The company has licenses in Austria, Bulgaria, France and elsewhere.

The trading bloc last year passed its wide-ranging Markets in Crypto Asset legislation (MiCA) that allows companies to apply for a license in one EU country and then work across the EU. MiCA will not be in full effect until December this year.
