Acquire a fully authorized Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) licensed by South Africa’s Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA). Newly licensed as of December 2024, this is one of the first regulated crypto entities available for acquisition under South Africa’s landmark CASP framework.
South Africa introduced mandatory CASP registration under the Financial Sector Conduct Authority in 2023, making it one of Africa’s most structured crypto regulatory frameworks. A Category 1 CASP license covers advisory and intermediary services, enabling a broad range of crypto asset operations. Obtaining this license from scratch involves extensive documentation, local directorship requirements, and lengthy review periods — making this acquisition a significant shortcut to market.
