(I was only aware of the one that I knew Coinbase held.)

- yebyen 8y agoI wonder how Reuters got all the way up to nine! > With the Square approval, DFS has now approved nine firms for virtual currency charters or licenses, while denying those applications that did not meet DFS’s standards. DFS has also granted licenses to Xapo, Inc., Genesis Global Trading Inc., bitFlyer USA, Coinbase Inc., XRP II and Circle Internet Financial, and charters to Gemini Trust Company and Paxos (formerly itBit Trust Company). from the Wiki citation [21] https://www.dfs.ny.gov/about/press/pr1806181.htm https://www.dfs.ny.gov/about/press/pr1806181.htm looks like two are charters, not sure how that's different than a full BitLicense.
