Notably the firm records an uptick in trading revenues at $59.5 million with a surging asset management arm soaring over 619%.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://twitter.com/cryptonews/status/1689347131423793152?s=46&amp;t=sCvh3f3rMDfXyJcf1y1Eyg"></oembed></figure>Despite mining woes, its mining division posted increasing revenues of $15.4 million, 51% higher than the previous quarter. As the firm recovers from the horrors of 2022, a firm foot globally will quicken its rise to the top.<h2 id="europe-every-crypto-executives-dream">Europe: Every crypto executive&rsquo;s dream&nbsp;</h2>This year, several crypto executives have hailed Europe as the go-to destination after the region passed the landmark Markets in Crypto Asset (<a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/markets-in-crypto-assets-mica-framework-signed-into-law-by-eu-officials.htm">MiCA</a>) regulation.&nbsp;Europe and the UK have taken steps towards some form of regulation clarity with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on course to make the country a web3-friendly hub.&nbsp;On the other hand, the United States market is plagued with regulatory inconsistencies with both the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) continuing with bottleneck<a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/breaking-coinbase-sued-by-sec-just-day-after-binance-lawsuit-which-firm-next.htm"> enforcement and rule-making by courts.&nbsp;</a>Speaking with the Financial Times, Marshall stressed that MiCA is the game changer for growing European demand.&nbsp;<blockquote>&ldquo;The European market demand that we&rsquo;re seeing, combined with the regulatory framework established by Mica, is robust. That makes Europe a desirable destination for crypto firms to build and grow.&rdquo;</blockquote>This month, Coinbase also <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/coinbase-pushes-toward-global-expansion-sets-sights-regulated-markets.htm">announced international expansion plans</a> flagging regions like Europe, Brazil, Hong Kong, and the UK as &ldquo;near-term priorities.&rdquo;&nbsp;Reasons cited border on clear rules or efforts to remove barriers in the market to protect all parties.
