STS Digital Ltd. Secures Full Digital Asset Business Licence from Bermuda Monetary Authority

STS Digital Ltd. has been granted a Full ‘F’ Licence by the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) under the Digital Asset Business Act 2018. This represents the highest level of regulatory authorisation in the jurisdiction, placing the firm alongside major institutional entities such as Circle, Coinbase International, and Payward. The milestone marks the final stage of the BMA’s rigorous licensing pathway, making STS Digital one of only a few companies to have successfully completed the entire transition from testing to full graduation.

The firm’s regulatory journey spanned three years, beginning with a Test Licence in May 2023. This was followed by a Modified Licence in April 2025, culminating in the Full ‘F’ Licence on 30 April 2026. By progressing through every stage of the framework, STS Digital has demonstrated compliance with one of the world’s first comprehensive digital asset regimes.

Bermuda remains a premier international financial hub, boasting Solvency II equivalence with the European Union and hosting the third-largest insurance market globally. The BMA’s oversight provides a robust institutional foundation for digital asset businesses, ensuring high standards of transparency and security within the sector. This approval reinforces STS Digital’s position within a highly regulated global marketplace.
