Solidgate has obtained a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) licence under the EU's MiCA framework via Cyprus, enabling it to operate regulated stablecoin services across the European Economic Area. This licence allows Solidgate to hold stablecoins, exchange fiat and stablecoins, perform stablecoin payouts and cross-border payments, and settle processing revenue in stablecoins within its own compliance perimeter.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to move beyond relying on partners for crypto compliance as owning your MiCA CASP licence unlocks direct control and faster scaling for stablecoin payments. Solidgate's shift highlights the advantage of directly managing custody and risk to dominate cross-border stablecoin rails in Europe.
