The Autorité des Marchés Financiers reported Bybit has been blacklisted since May 2022 “for non-compliance with current French regulations.”
The Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF), the securities regulator in France, has reiterated a warning to crypto investors that Bybit is blacklisted in the country.
In a May 16 notice, the AMF reminded the French public that Bybit was an unregistered crypto platform operating illegally in the country, offering digital asset services on behalf of third parties. The regulator warned it had the authority to block Bybit’s website “providing its services illegally in France.”
“Unregistered platforms providing these services in France are illegal under French law,” said the AMF. “BYBIT is not registered as a [digital asset service provider].”
