Cryptocurrency exchange Bitget has appointed Oliver Stauber as chief executive of its European unit. The move signals its intention to deepen its presence in the European Union as the bloc’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) framework comes into force.

The exchange said Stauber will lead Bitget EU and oversee the establishment of its European headquarters in Vienna, Austria. The decision places Bitget among a growing group of crypto firms seeking to anchor their regional operations in jurisdictions viewed as supportive of regulated digital-asset businesses under MiCAR.
