Sunlight dances on turquoise waves, soft sand beneath bare feet. An island escape where the soul finds calm. Pure ocean air, endless horizons.

While establishing its European MiCA hub in Malta, Gemini has yet to receive a MiCA license from Maltese financial regulators, Gemini’s head of Europe, Mark Jennings, told Cointelegraph.
