Blockchain.com expands operations alongside TechCayman, doubling down on Cayman Islands.

Blockchain.com, a global leader in crypto services for retail and institutional users, has announced plans to deepen its presence in the Cayman Islands alongside TechCayman.

As part of its Cayman Islands expansion, Blockchain.com will establish a local presence in Camana Bay and make its first on-island hire this summer to support its growing operations and community engagement.

“The Cayman Islands has established itself as a forward-thinking jurisdiction for digital asset innovation,” said Lane Kasselman, Co-CEO at Blockchain.com. “Alongside TechCayman, we are proud to establish a physical presence and begin building a team to help shape a sustainable, regulated, and long-term future for crypto.”

TechCayman is supporting Blockchain.com through its sponsorship framework, operational guidance and local network, helping the company build a physical presence in Cayman as part of the island’s growing digital asset sector.

In August, Blockchain.com announced that it had secured its definitive Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) custody services licence from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA) through its Cayman Islands subsidiary.

The licence follows conditional approval granted by CIMA in December 2025, with all conditions for approval met as of 22 July 2026. Blockchain.com is now licensed to provide virtual asset custody services and has also been approved to provide exchange services between virtual assets and fiat currencies, as well as between convertible virtual assets.

The regulatory milestone comes as Blockchain.com continues to build its physical presence in Cayman alongside TechCayman, including plans for its first on-island hire.
