CRYPTOCURRENCY exchange service CoinJar will establish its new European hub in Dublin, creating 30 highly-skilled new roles.
The Australian company’s move involves a €5 million investment over the next two years and is supported by the Irish government through IDA Ireland.
The Dublin-based team will collaborate with CoinJar’s existing operations in London and Melbourne to provide secure, compliant, and user-friendly digital asset services to customers throughout Europe.
“Ireland offers an remarkable blend of talent, connectivity and a clear regulatory pathway,” said Niall Carson, CEO of CoinJar Europe.
“Establishing Dublin as our European hub positions us to serve customers across the EU while building on CoinJar’s decade-plus track record of reliable,compliant digital asset services.”
CoinJar, founded in 2013, currently enables users to buy, sell, exchange, or spend over 60 different cryptocurrencies.
The company noted Ireland’s increasing appeal as a destination for regulated digital asset firms, coinciding with growing confidence in the cryptocurrency industry.
CoinJar anticipates 2026 will be a pivotal year for cryptocurrencies, as the industry matures and gains broader acceptance within the global financial system.
Despite its origins as a niche technology, the increasing clarity of regulations, improved infrastructure, and more responsible innovation are fostering greater trust among both consumers and institutional investors.
Peter Burke, Minister for Department of Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, stated the investment is a strong vote of confidence in Ireland and its workforce.
“This announcement reflects Ireland’s growing reputation as a leading location for innovative fintech and digital asset companies,” he said.
“Their expansion demonstrates the confidence that global firms place in Ireland’s talent base and the strong support provided by IDA Ireland.”
Denis Curran, head of Emerging Business in IDA Ireland, echoed these sentiments, describing the move as “a welcome endorsement of Ireland’s growing Digital Finance sector and as a leading location in Europe for regulated financial services.”
