Webull Wins EU Crypto License, Plans Late-2026 Launch
BULL sits 64% above its 52-week low of $4.5.
Summary
Webull's European subsidiary received MiCAR approval from the Dutch AFM, allowing it to offer regulated crypto custody and trading across the EU. The license marks a significant expansion beyond equities and options, with a planned launch in late 2026 starting in the Netherlands and passporting to follow. Execution will be handled through Coinbase Luxembourg. This follows a series of growth moves — a $100M Pi Securities acquisition, private-company access for accredited investors, and IRA mutual funds — but crypto is a new asset class for the platform. The approval opens a large addressable market and positions Webull as an early mover among dual-regulated investment firms in Europe.
