Binance offers Dutch users the option to move client assets to a competitor after failing to secure a local license amid a broader regulatory clampdown.

Clients of Binance can move assets to Coinmerce, an exchange that secured a license from the Dutch central bank in 2020.

Binance Offers Dutch Users Seamless Transition to Licensed Exchange

Binance will cease Dutch operations on July 17.

Coinmerce CEO Nick Smits van Oyen let Binance users know that the changeover should be easy.

“The transition will be smooth and is, in consultation with Binance we have made the transition for users as easy as possible. The user will receive an email from Binance and from there the simple step-by-step process will start.” 

The move will likely bode well for users when Europe’s Markets-in-Crypto-Assets bill comes into force next year. The bill delegates licensing to local market regulators and allows exchanges to passport them across to other European Union member states.

In the meantime, Coinmerce says it “complies with all European laws and regulations.”

Earlier this month, Binance confirmed it failed to meet Dutch licensing requirements but was looking at other options.
