Lithuania Moves to Extend Licensing Deadline for Crypto Companies

Lithuania is taking another step forward in shaping a transparent and competitive crypto ecosystem. A new draft law registered in Parliament proposes to extend the licensing period for operating crypto companies until January 1, 2026.

This move underscores the country’s commitment to supporting innovation while allowing businesses the necessary time to align with regulatory requirements. As Lithuania continues to attract world-class talent and forward-thinking companies, this extension could play a key role in maintaining momentum in the sector.

The Crypto Economy Organisation took part in discussion at the Parliament regarding the extension of the grandfathering period, representing the interests of the market.

With major crypto firms already serving millions globally and contributing to the national economy, the extension reinforces Lithuania’s position as a rising hub for blockchain and digital assets.
