BingX, YouHodler added to ESMA MiCA register in latest update
ESMA’s latest MiCA register update includes BingX, YouHodler and Banco Santander’s Openbank, bringing the total to 375 unique CASPs.
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has added nine crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) to its Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) register, bringing the total to 375 unique providers. This update includes crypto exchange BingX, which operates in Austria under the entity MEGE zweite, and YouHodler's Italian subsidiary, a crypto lending platform authorized for custody, exchanges, order execution, and transfers. BingX and YouHodler both disclosed their authorizations last week.
Additionally, Spain's Prakma Markets, associated with the Goin crypto app, which provides a savings and investment platform, and Germany's Openbank Deutschland, a subsidiary of Banco Santander, were included in the latest update. Openbank Deutschland, along with cooperative lenders VR-Bank Alb-Blau-Donau and VR Bank im südlichen Franken, were also added to the register.
On the other hand, Denmark's Penning Financial Services was removed from the MiCA register despite appearing in previous updates since July 3. Currently, the e-money token (EMT) register contains 50 entries representing 25 unique entities, while the asset-referenced token (ART) register remains empty. The register of non-compliant crypto-asset service providers (NCASPs) has increased by five entries to 178.
