Renta 4 Banco of Spain obtains MiCA license

Renta 4 Banco in Spain has obtained the MiCA license issued by the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), becoming the fourth bank in the country to legally buy, sell, custody, and transfer crypto assets.

This authorization allows Renta 4 to provide institutional custody, order reception, and transmission services, and to offer transfer services for digital assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) to all clients. Previously, BBVA was the first to obtain the license in March 2025 and launched Bitcoin and Ethereum trading services; Cecabank and Santander's digital bank Openbank received authorization in July. In addition, Spain has also authorized EU banks such as Deutsche Bank, CACEIS from France, and Société Générale from France to operate cryptocurrency services locally through the MiCA European passport.
