ESMA Adds 12 More Crypto Firms to MiCA Register in July Update

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has released its fourth update to the MiCA register since the July 1 transitional deadline. The update adds 12 companies to the list of authorized crypto-asset service providers (CASPs), bringing the total number of listed CASPs to 321.

Among the new additions are three German cooperative banks: Volksbank Raiffeisenbank Oberbayern Südost, VR Bank Schleswig-Holstein Mitte, and VR-Bank Landau-Mengkofen. Two companies in Spain, Basque Pay and Fintech Payments, and four in France, Finary, Woorton, Blockchain Process Security, and Shares Financial Assets, are also included.

ESMA's update also added three non-compliant entities to its register: Cervo Rendisco, Flandenzo, and Corona Fondenza. These companies were flagged by Italy's Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa (CONSOB). The non-compliant entities register now includes 167 entries.
