PANews reported on May 3 that according to Cointelegraph, the Financial Times disclosed that the cryptocurrency options exchange Deribit is re-evaluating the possibility of entering the US market. The company's CEO Luuk Strijers said that the recent US regulatory attitude towards cryptocurrencies has become more friendly, which is a key factor driving it to consider expansion.
Deribit is headquartered in Dubai and has previously been rumored to be in in-depth negotiations with Coinbase on a potential acquisition. It is reported that both parties have notified Dubai regulators that if the transaction is reached, Deribit's license will need to be transferred to Coinbase.
