Coinbase Makes Move In Spain: New Frontiers for Cryptocurrency
As a result of this milestone, users in Spain will now enjoy access to various services, including custody of crypto assets, the ability to buy or sell cryptocurrencies with legal tender, and the opportunity to trade crypto assets against other digital currencies.
This move comes at a time when 29% of Spanish adults believe that cryptocurrencies represent the future of finance, with digital currencies surpassing bank transfers as the second most popular payment method in Spain. Furthermore, the country has witnessed a surge in blockchain-related startups, reflecting a growing demand for blockchain skills and technologies.

The recent adoption of regulatory guidelines, such as MiCA, by European Union policymakers further underscores the increasing recognition of cryptocurrencies’ potential in the region.
Coinbase’s registration with the Bank of Spain aligns with the company’s commitment to providing regulatory clarity, innovative products, and services while fostering user trust for long-term growth in the crypto industry.
