The U.S. represents one of the largest and most dynamic crypto markets in the world. As of 2024, the U.S. accounts for over 25% of global cryptocurrency activity, driven by increasing institutional investment and mainstream adoption. The approval of Bitcoin exchange-traded Funds (ETFs) has boosted institutional interest significantly, signaling a shift toward greater acceptance of cryptocurrencies as full-fledged assets. By 2025, the U.S. crypto market is expected to see substantial growth, with estimates projecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 12% in the sector, supported by both retail and institutional demand. For companies like Kyrrex, entering the U.S. market is a strategic move to expand user reach and tap into this rapidly evolving landscape, which offers vast potential for innovation and growth.

Kyrrex’s expansion into the U.S. is a testament to the company’s commitment to building a global crypto ecosystem that connects crypto-related services in one platform. By providing American users with access to a platform that offers crypto trading, wallet services, and low-fee purchases via debit and credit cards, Kyrrex is positioned to be a responsible player in the U.S. market. After six years of building a comprehensive crypto ecosystem, the company continues to lead with regulatory compliance. Today, Kyrrex’s achievements include:

  • Saint Vincent and the Grenadines: Kyrrex Limited is registered and recognized by the SVG Financial Services Authority, providing a foundation of trust and security;
  • Malta: REX, part of the Kyrrex ecosystem, obtained a prestigious VFA Class 4 license in 2021, allowing the platform to offer Virtual Financial Assets (VFA) services while maintaining the highest European regulatory standards;
  • United States: Kyrrex is registered with FinCEN as a Money Services Business (MSB) and is available in 10 U.S. states, including California, Massachusetts, and Utah.

Kyrrex ecosystem is also preparing for future regulatory changes by applying for a Class 3 MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) license and an EMI (Electronic Money Institution) license in Malta and the U.K. Also, the company applied for an Investments Services license, which will enable brokerage services from and within Malta. This strategic approach ensures that Kyrrex will continue to offer secure and compliant services across multiple jurisdictions.

“Kyrrex’s entry into the U.S. comes at a critical time as regulations around cryptocurrency continue to evolve. The company’s commitment to regulatory compliance demonstrated through adherence to U.S. state law, positions Kyrrex as a responsible and reliable platform for American users. As part of Kyrrex’s mission, we will continue working closely with U.S. regulators to ensure that our platform remains compliant with the highest regulatory standards.”, stated Mr. Romanenko from Kyrrex.

With plans to expand into more states and enhance its service offerings, Kyrrex is dedicated to reshaping the operations of digital assets by providing users with secure, efficient, and regulated crypto solutions.
