Crypto Holding Relocation to Spain
Client
International cryptocurrency holding


Challenge
An international cryptocurrency holding was operating out of Seychelles and needed to move its corporate base to an onshore European jurisdiction. The offshore structure had become a friction point: limited banking access, weaker counterparty trust, and a perimeter that no longer matched where the business actually ran. Spain offered a credible onshore home, but the relocation touched corporate structure, regulator coordination, and the registration of new entities in parallel — all without disrupting day-to-day operations. The client needed a clear path from Seychelles to Spain before committing to the move and reorganising the group around it.
Solution
We managed the full relocation as a single workstream, from Seychelles wind-down to Spanish onshore footprint:
- Regulator coordination — engaged with the relevant authorities on both sides to align the move with corporate and crypto-activity expectations, and to keep the transition defensible.
- Corporate adjustments — restructured the holding so the Spanish entities could take over the group role cleanly, with intra-group contracts and governance updated to the new home.
- Entity registration — incorporated the new Spanish companies, set up the statutory documentation, and prepared the group to operate from an onshore European base.
- Operational continuity — sequenced the steps so that client-facing activity and counterparty relationships continued through the move without a gap.
Result
The holding completed its move to Spain, with the group now operating from an onshore European base and stronger banking access on the back of the new structure.
The relocation reset the holding's credibility profile — turning an offshore footprint into an onshore European platform built for long-term banking and counterparty trust.
