Crypto.com faces scrutiny in Poland as regulator issues public warning
The Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) has issued a public warning regarding the operations of Foris DAX MT, a Malta-based company associated with Crypto.com, citing potential regulatory noncompliance. While the KNF’s warning does not constitute a ban, it advises Polish investors to consider risks linked to the platform. The warning is significant, as it alerts citizens to unauthorized financial activities; however, according to Tomek Kolodziejczuk, a Bitcoin advocate, Crypto.com has not been blacklisted. The KNF notes that under Polish law, companies must possess the appropriate licenses to provide brokerage or investment services. The warning has been communicated to the Warsaw Regional Prosecutor’s Office for further investigation. Currently, there are 413 institutions on the KNF's warning list, with Crypto.com standing out as the largest. Meanwhile, Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek has expressed intentions to challenge the SEC's recent allegations against the firm, arguing for regulatory clarity in the industry.
