Coinbase and OKX try to lure in Binance’s 450 million EU users after it failed to secure a MiCA license
“Coinbase has been MiCA licensed since 2025 and offers unified global liquidity across spot and derivatives,” the crypto exchange says in its offer to new users. “We’re offering a 5% transfer bonus for people moving funds to Coinbase before July 13th,” it adds. Star Xu, OKX founder and CEO, also offered bonuses to new users in Europe in an X post on Saturday saying that MiCA marks the start of a new era for crypto in the region.
