Moomoo, a subsidiary of Hong Kong-based
online brokerage Futu, has expanded its cryptocurrency trading services to
investors in Texas and introduced a new direct crypto deposit and withdrawal
feature for U.S. users, according to a company statement.
A relevant comparison
can be drawn with IG Group,
which has been granted a cryptoasset licence by the UK Financial Conduct
Authority. The licence allows the firm to expand its crypto offering and
makes IG the first UK-listed company to join the FCA’s cryptoasset register.
Following the licence
approval, customers are expected to gain the ability to transfer crypto assets
in and out of the platform.

With the rollout in
Texas, users in the state now have access to 52 cryptocurrencies on the
platform. The company said trading carries “$0 commission*”. The expansion
extends Moomoo’s crypto services across several U.S. states, including
California, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Texas.
Alongside the
geographic expansion, Moomoo launched a Direct Crypto Deposit & Withdraw
feature. The function allows users to transfer supported cryptocurrencies
between external Web3 wallets and their Moomoo accounts.
The company said this
enables users to move assets on-chain through Moomoo Crypto, Inc., while
maintaining access to equities, options and other asset classes through Moomoo
Financial, Inc.
The firm said the
system allows users to convert crypto holdings into fiat currency within the
platform, with funds then available for use across other investment products
offered on Moomoo.
