Blockchain firm Plasma is expanding its operations across Europe, acquiring a VASP-licensed entity in Italy and establishing an office in Amsterdam to bolster regulatory compliance. This strategic move positions Plasma as a leader in EU stablecoin infrastructure. The company plans to leverage this position to provide secure asset custody, exchange services, and issue cards under compliant frameworks, ultimately boosting the stability and integration of stablecoin markets within financial systems. Plasma’s focus on regulatory leadership is crucial, with the company aiming to obtain CASP and EMI licenses that will enable these services to operate seamlessly within a regulated framework.
