Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss’s Gemini Trust Company LLC has gotten a New York State regulator’s blessing to trade another kind of cryptocurrency on its bitcoin exchange.
Gemini won approval from the New York Department of Financial Services to begin trading Ether, a cryptocurrency similar to bitcoin, on its platform immediately, according to a release Thursday. The twins, who claimed that Mark Zuckerberg stole their idea for a social-networking website when he started Facebook Inc., were early entrepreneurs in the bitcoin industry.
