Every year, the Banco de España (Bank of Spain) adds new companies to its list of crypto service providers. Since 2020, the number of companies that want to offer such services has skyrocketed.
On many occasions, it is the clients themselves who request these services from companies, demonstrating that cryptocurrencies are a disruptive element that is changing the traditional financial sector.
As you already know, Crypto API is the perfect solution for all companies that want to offer crypto services to do it easily, quickly, and securely.
Thanks to our turnkey solution, with a pre-built frontend using Bit2Me’s infrastructure, know-how, and technology, in which you only have to adapt the design to your brand, you can offer your customers a wide variety of services related to cryptocurrencies in a very short time and with minimal effort.
Why Choose Bit2Me Crypto API?
One of the main reasons for choosing our service is to take advantage of the technology and know-how of a leading company in the cryptocurrency sector in Spain since 2014.
Not only have we spent almost a decade perfecting our technology and creating a cutting-edge infrastructure, but we are the first company in the crypto sector to be recognized by the Bank of Spain as a cryptocurrency service provider.
Therefore, if you choose us, you can enjoy greater transparency while ensuring full compliance with current Spanish regulations.
Why Is Regulatory Compliance Important?
One of the main barriers to adopting cryptocurrencies is the lack of knowledge and the complexity of the current regulations. At best, these are confusing and unclear, but at worst, they require the involvement of specialized legal staff, which is not always possible.
To be recognized as a crypto service provider in Spain requires, among other things, filling out the Bank of Spain’s registration form for cryptocurrency service providers, which follows the second additional provision of Spanish Law 10/2010, of April 28, on the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing.
