Gemini is abruptly shutting down all Canadian customer accounts by December 31, 2024, in response to tightening regulations. Customers have 90 days to withdraw their funds before the closure.
The cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, which was created by Winklevoss, is planning to shut all customer accounts in Canada by the end of the year 2024.
Gemini to Shut Down Canadian Accounts by End of 2024
In an email that was sent out to users of the exchange in Canada on September 30th, Gemini announced that it would close all accounts in Canada by December 31st. The email also informed consumers that they had ninety days available to withdraw assets from the platform.
90-Day Withdrawal Window for Canadian Customers
“Effective December 31, 2024, Gemini will close all customer accounts in Canada with limited exceptions. As a result, we will be closing your Gemini account,” the exchange stated in an email to its customers.
Regulatory Changes Force Gemini's Exit from Canada
The unexpected action taken by Gemini comes many months after the country's financial agencies jointly proposed laws for cryptocurrency exchanges and trading platforms that are located on Canadian government territory.
Canadian Regulations Push Crypto Exchanges to Adapt
In a notice that was published on February 22nd, the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) mandated that all cryptocurrency asset trading platforms must execute a pre-registration commitment that is legally binding in order to continue operating within the nation.
Different responses were given by major international cryptocurrency exchanges in response to the new regulatory framework.
Gemini’s Initial Efforts to Comply with Canadian Laws
In a hurry to comply with the new regulations, Gemini submitted its pre-registration on April 13th. A spokeswoman for the company stated that Canada was "one of the most important and developed markets in the Americas" and that it had played an "essential role in Gemini's international expansion."
Despite the fact that Cointelegraph attempted to get a comment from Gemini regarding the closure of Canadian accounts, the company did not provide a response by the time this article was published.
