As a UK EMI licensed operator, BVNK will be able to serve leading global businesses who require partners to be regulated and enterprise compliant.”<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/df7306be6db64cf79d3c4463f75f5740.png" />According to Henson, the company will continue to obtain new licenses to build out its capabilities further so as to provide its customers with an “unparalleled offering.”Notably, this acquisition follows Bvnk’s current registration in Spain as a Virtual Asset Services Provider. Hemson stated,  “We’re building the modern payment rails that global businesses deserve — instant, borderless, and resilient. We believe that regulated, fiat-backed stablecoins combined with the best parts of traditional payments will provide the infrastructure needed to deliver this vision.”Speaking of acquisition, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), CEO of Binance, confirmed in an interview last week that the company’s US-based branch is <a href="https://blockchainreporter.net/binance-us-prepares-to-acquire-voyager-confirms-ceo-cz/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">set to acquire Voyager</a>. According to CZ, the company is taking this move due to the beleaguered FTX exchange failure to acquire it.
