Greece Enters EU Crypto Regulatory Framework with First MiCA-Registered Providers

Greece has entered the European Union's crypto regulatory framework after four providers were added to the EU's MiCA register. The additions mark the first Greek entries on the EU's crypto regulatory register, which now includes 359 unique providers.

The new entrants are BCash, Xenios Blockchain Group, Capital Wallet Greece, and Piraeus Bank. The Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC) is listed as the competent authority for three of these companies, while Piraeus Bank falls under the supervision of the Bank of Greece.

The EU's MiCA framework allows member states to designate more than one competent authority for crypto-asset services. This division reflects Greece's implementation of the framework, which provides a harmonized regulatory framework across the European Union.
