New York-based cryptocurrency exchange Gemini has moved a step closer in fulfilling its mission of building a world-class digital asset exchange available to customers in all 50 US states and around the globe.
 
The startup has announced the expansion of its services to Texas, allowing registered customers in The Lone Star State to buy, sell, and store bitcoin and ether using the Gemini exchange. Registered users will now be able to:

• Buy BTC with USD or ETH, and sell BTC for USD or ETH

“We’re excited to bring our friends in Texas aboard the Gemini spaceship for our journey!”, Gemini said. “We would like to highlight that Gemini is also accepting Institutional clients outside of the U.S. on a case-by-case basis.”
