NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Bitcoin–AstraBit today announced that it has been granted membership by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), formally registering as a broker-dealer in the United States. The milestone reflects AstraBit’s commitment to a regulatory and compliance-first approach, aligning innovation with accountability in digital asset markets.
