German cryptocurrency custody and staking services group Finoa is opening a branch in Vilnius, the country’s investment promotion agency Invest Lithuania announced Wednesday.
The new office will work with several Finoa Group companies and focus on operations, compliance, anti–money laundering, and technology. The company plans to expand the Vilnius team’s responsibilities over time.

Deputy Economy Minister Darius Zailskas said Finoa’s decision reflects the maturity and diversity of Lithuania’s fintech sector.
