Delio was the first company in Korea to receive a VASP license to operate crypto lending and savings services. As an institutional crypto-financial organization, Delio offers a range of financial services in compliance with the legal guidelines set out by financial authorities after establishing a U.S.-side corporation and acquiring a U.S. MSB (Money Services Business) license.
