BitBay, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in Poland, has renamed itself Zonda and hired a new chief executive as it kicks off an expansion beyond Europe.
Zonda, which has more than a million users and holds a crypto license to operate across the European Union, is on track to snag a license in Switzerland next, to be followed by the U.K. and Canada, according to newly appointed CEO Przemysław Kral.
“We are very well known in central and eastern Europe as we have a crypto/fiat license in Estonia and we are also the first exchange to have an audited financial statement there,” said Kral, who served as BitBay’s chief legal officer before becoming CEO. “Now we want to be fully regulated and have licenses everywhere.”
