Our take

Gemini is a cryptocurrency exchange platform that's known for offering excellent security as well as being available across the US, including New York - a state not often covered by crypto exchanges.

As a trading platform, Gemini is one of many, but a dedication to innovation and a commitment to working within FCA regulations are what make it stand out from the crowd. After acquiring Blockrize in 2021, the company launched a credit card for US customers that enables them to earn a small percentage of spending back in bitcoin rewards. It also launched the Gemini dollar, a 1:1 USD-backed stablecoin, that combines the price stability of the US dollar with the technological advantages of a cryptocurrency.

The crypto exchange market is crowded with exchange platforms, and Gemini's competitors include giants like Coinbase. It's also had to wind down operations outside of the USA due to tightening crypto legislation in countries like the United Kingdom, reducing its headcount in the process. However, Gemini continues to operate within US regulations and maintains its status as a registered digital asset service provider. In the US at least, it's in a strong position to face the continued crackdown on unauthorised activity in the crypto market and has made a space for itself in the DeFi future.
