Zug, Switzerland, May 12th, 2026, Chainwire

Bitcoin Suisse (International) Ltd., an affiliate of the Bitcoin Suisse Group, has received a Class F license under Bermuda’s Digital Asset Business Act and Class B registration approval under the Investment Business Act from the Bermuda Monetary Authority, authorising regulated digital asset management and investment advisory services for professional and institutional clients.

The BMA’s approval marks a significant step in Bitcoin Suisse’s international expansion. Bitcoin Suisse (International) Ltd. now has the regulatory foundation to provide investment advisory and asset management services to professional and institutional clients outside Switzerland through a dedicated entity.

"Institutional investors increasingly recognize digital assets as a permanent part of their portfolios. What they need is a partner who combines deep crypto-native expertise with the governance and regulatory standards they expect from traditional financial services. The BMA approvals mark an important step in Bitcoin Suisse's transition towards a global wealth management platform and allow us to be exactly that partner for clients internationally." – Andrej Majcen, Co-Founder and Group CEO of Bitcoin Suisse.

Regulated Investment Advisory and Asset Management

Bitcoin Suisse (International) Ltd. is domiciled in Hamilton, Bermuda, and is fully owned by BTCS Holding Ltd., the group’s holding entity. The DABA license covers the provision of regulated digital asset business services, while the IBA registration enables the entity to provide investment advisory and discretionary portfolio management. The entity will serve professional and institutional clients with a suite of services spanning investment advisory, discretionary portfolio management mandates, and proprietary investment strategies. Clients may fund mandates in Bitcoin, stablecoins, or fiat currency.

The entity operates on a non-custodial basis and relies on regulated custodial providers and partner banks to deliver institutional-grade security. An experienced CIO Office and dedicated research function underpin all investment decisions, drawing on Bitcoin Suisse’s proprietary Crypto Analysis Framework and its Global Crypto Taxonomy – a classification system covering approximately 600 digital assets across six sectors, developed over more than a decade of crypto-native research.

Bermuda: A Premier Jurisdiction for Regulated Digital Asset Services

Bermuda has established itself as one of the world’s leading jurisdictions for digital assets, having introduced the Digital Asset Business Act in 2018 as one of the first comprehensive frameworks of its kind. The granting of both a DABA license and an IBA registration to Bitcoin Suisse (International) Ltd. reflects the group’s compliance infrastructure, governance standards, and operational maturity.

Part of a Broader Global Regulatory Rollout

The presence in Bermuda complements Bitcoin Suisse’s existing international footprint. The group already holds an In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), reflecting its commitment to serving clients across the Middle East under a regulated framework. Together, these milestones underline Bitcoin Suisse’s ambition to bring its native crypto expertise to professional and institutional clients across multiple jurisdictions, including (U)HNWIs, family offices, external asset managers, and corporate counterparties.
