According to reporting fro CoinDesk, unnamed potential buyers are evaluating an acquisition of parts of Gemini Space Station (NASDAQ: GEMI), the crypto exchange backed by the billionaire Winklevoss twins.

What's the Scoop?

  • Looming Purchase: Potential buyers are exploring the acquisition of parts of crypto exchange Gemini, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter cited by CoinDesk. Buyers are apparently interested in acquiring the exchange's shuttered operations in Europe and the United Kingdom as a ploy to more easily obtain regulatory licenses in these jurisdictions.
  • Overseas Retreat: This February, Gemini laid off roughly 25% of its workforce and announced an overseas retreat and shuttered international operations across the United Kingdom, European Union, and Australia as part of a broader effort to increase productivity and manage costs.
