Interactive Tool Helps Crypto Firms Pick Jurisdictions
Tallinn, Estonia, November 13th, 2025, Chainwire
How the Jurisdiction Selector Helps Crypto Startups
Gofaizen & Sherle, a law company that works with fintech, has launched a new tool called the Crypto License Navigator. This tool helps crypto businesses figure out where to get their licenses so they can operate in different countries. This is especially important because new rules for crypto businesses will be put in place in the EU in 2026. These new rules will make it harder for businesses to get licenses, so picking the right place to get one is very important.
The License Navigator helps businesses, whether small or large, choose the best country or region to get their crypto license. It makes sure they can follow the rules and grow in a safe way. The tool looks at different factors like how much money is needed to start, how long it takes to get the license, and if banks will accept the business.
Things to Think About When Choosing a Place for a Crypto License
Gofaizen & Sherle say businesses should think about many things when picking a place to get their crypto license. Some of the most important things to consider are:
Global Recognition: How well the place is known among banks and fintech companies.
Reputation: How much trust the place has with customers and investors.
Scope of Operations: What crypto services the license lets the company offer.
Legislation Sustainability: How stable the rules are.
Operating Costs: How much it costs to run the business in that place, including office and staff costs.
Tax Regime: How much the business will need to pay in taxes.
Initial Budget: How much money is needed to get the license and start the business.
Launch Time: How long it takes to get the license and start operating.
Local Presence: Whether the business needs to have a director or compliance officer in the country.
The License Navigator combines all these important things into one easy-to-use tool. It gives businesses a way to compare places and pick the best option based on their goals.
Popular Crypto Places in 2026 According to Gofaizen & Sherle
El Salvador: El Salvador has no corporate income tax for crypto businesses. It is expected that many big exchanges will keep expanding there because it offers a simple license for many types of crypto activities.
Canada: Canada is known for clear and fair rules for crypto exchanges. It is one of the best places to start a crypto business in North America. Canada has low barriers to entry and strong credibility.
Montana (USA): Montana is known for being a place where crypto innovation can grow without many regulations. This makes it easier and cheaper for crypto businesses to operate.
Switzerland: Switzerland is a well-known place for fintech. It offers flexible rules that work for both fiat (regular money) and crypto businesses under one license.
