Bitget has become the third mainstream exchange in the world to obtain both DASP and BSP licenses from El Salvador

ChainCatcher news, recently, the National Digital Assets Commission of El Salvador (CNAD) granted a Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) license to Bitget. Following the acquisition of a Bitcoin Service Provider (BSP) license in 2024, Bitget has further expanded its compliance layout locally, becoming the third mainstream cryptocurrency exchange globally to obtain dual licenses, after Binance and Bitfinex.The acquisition of both DASP and BSP licenses means that Bitget can legally conduct spot and derivatives trading, staking, yield products, and other one-stop digital asset services in El Salvador. Additionally, the new license also covers infrastructure products such as crypto savings and investments, further enhancing user convenience and asset security in participating in Web3.Bitget's Chief Legal Officer Hon Ng stated, "We are always committed to expanding our business in countries with clear regulatory frameworks and providing quality services to our users. This recognition from CNAD is an important step in Bitget's global compliance strategy. El Salvador has a forward-looking and transparent approach to digital asset regulation, making it very attractive for Web3 companies focused on compliance. In the future, we will continue to support markets with clear regulatory systems and promote the robust development of the crypto economy."
