According to the regulator's <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mas.gov.sg\/regulation\/payments\/licensing-for-payment-service-providers\"><span class=\"s4\">website<\/span><\/a>, the MPI license would allow Coinbase to bypass several financial thresholds in the country, including a S$3 million monthly transaction limit and S$5 million daily outstanding money.<\/p>\n<p>Coinbase described Singapore as a priority market for its operations, saying the country's &#8220;progressive economic strategies and approach to regulation sync well with our global mission and objectives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the crypto exchange expressed readiness to support Singapore's local crypto and web3 community through investments and partnerships. Coinbase revealed that its venture arm has made over 15 investments in local web3-related companies within the region.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s3\">Coinbase's MPI license now puts it in the same ranks as other Singpore-licensed entities like Blockchain.com, Circle, and Crypto.com.<\/p>\n<p>Following the news, Coinbase's COIN stocks rallied by more than 5% pre-market to $79.26, according to Google Finance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/COIN:NASDAQ?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiD3PrZmdeBAxV5QzABHckJDj8Q3ecFegQIKxAf\">data<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Coinbase global expansion continues<\/h2>\n<p>Coinbase's latest licensing in Singapore aligns with its <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/armstrong-coinbase-leaving-the-us-for-uk-is-on-the-table\/\">broader international expansion plans<\/a> amid the <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coinbase-receives-wells-notice-from-sec\/\">uncertain regulatory landscape in t<\/a>he U.S.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s3\">The exchange's Chief Legal Officer, Paul Grewal, pointed out that governments worldwide were introducing clearer regulations for the emerging industry.
