How to read this tracker.
To serve EU clients after 1 July 2026, a provider needs a MiCA crypto-asset service provider (CASP) authorisation from an EU/EEA competent authority. That single gate produces the statuses below. Each row states only what a regulator, the firm, or a public register has already published — and links to the NorthPoint page where that fact is set out and to the free MiCA check you can run yourself. The machine-readable version of this table is published at /data/casp-tracker.json.
| Status | What it means here |
|---|---|
| Listed as holding a MiCA CASP authorisation on the public record cited on the linked page — passportable across the EU/EEA. | |
| Restricted | Subject to a published restriction or suspension, or a token withdrawn from licensed EU trading venues. |
| Withdrawn | Has withdrawn or wound down EU/EEA activity per the firm’s own notices or reporting. |
| Not confirmed | Status not asserted by NorthPoint as of 12 July 2026 — verify directly on the ESMA register. |

“Authorised” means the entity that serves you is recorded by a competent authority — not merely asserted in marketing. A status here is a time-stamped, sourced pointer; always confirm the current, authoritative entry on the ESMA register of authorised CASPs before you rely on it. Where we cannot confirm a current status, we say so rather than guess.
If you market a crypto service into the EU, this cuts both ways.
Whether a provider is authorised, restricted, or withdrawn, its EU marketing is held to the MiCA standard. Under Article 88, every customer-facing message must be clear, fair, and not misleading — and claims about your own authorisation, available markets, or supported assets are exactly the statements that have to be accurate. The routes below show how to check a live asset before it ships.

This tracker is general, educational information for EU users and marketing teams, not legal, financial, or investment advice, and not a determination of any firm’s authorisation status or any authority’s intentions. Every row is a factual, sourced data point at a point in time — drawn from regulators’ statements, firms’ own notices, public registers, and NorthPoint’s own cited MiCA pages — and can change as licences are granted, withdrawn, or restrictions lifted. Naming a firm here is not an allegation of wrongdoing. Confirm the current position on the ESMA register of authorised CASPs, the relevant national competent authority’s records, and the firm’s own EU service notices, and consult qualified counsel for your situation. As of 12 July 2026.
