Crypto & Web3 FAQ

Where is the best place to incorporate a Web3 startup?

Popular choices include Switzerland (Zug), UAE (Dubai VARA/ADGM), Singapore, and offshore hubs like BVI, Cayman Islands, or Panama for foundation structures and token issuance.

Do I need a special license to launch a token?

It depends on the token's utility and the jurisdiction. Security tokens always require strict licensing. Utility tokens may not require a license, but operating an exchange or custodial wallet usually requires a VASP license.

Can I open a traditional bank account for a crypto company?

It is notoriously difficult. Most traditional banks de-risk crypto businesses. You will likely need to rely on specialized crypto-friendly banks, EMIs (Electronic Money Institutions), or OTC desks for fiat on/off ramps.
