Europe's disruptive cryptocurrency fee structure: Finst's strategic market entry and fee advantages in France

Finst went live in France on September 9, 2025, with transaction fees of up to 0.15% for its 340 cryptocurrencies, which is well below the average of 2.2% for competitors in the region. The platform holds a MiCA license, provides zero spreads, free SEPA transfers and advanced staking services, and provides a transparent, low-cost cryptocurrency access experience for retail and institutional users. Finst's entry could spark a wider cost war in Europe and accelerate its popularity in the French market with 2 million users.
