Floin is now MiCA-licensed, bringing an added layer of regulatory clarity to your digital asset experience. Your account continues to work as usual, while we operate under European standards designed to strengthen transparency, accountability, and user protection.
MiCA — the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (formally Regulation (EU) 2023/1114, also known as MiCAR) — is the European Union's regulatory framework for crypto-assets and the companies that provide crypto-asset services. It sets clear, EU-wide rules for how those companies operate, how they safeguard client assets, how they communicate risks, and how they are supervised. In short, it brings crypto activity under a single, transparent standard across the EU and EEA, including Liechtenstein.
For years, crypto operated without a consistent rulebook in Europe. MiCA changes that. It replaces a patchwork of national approaches with one harmonized framework, so the same standards for transparency, security, and client protection apply in every member state.
For you, that means working with providers held to clear, enforceable obligations — not informal promises. Regulation here is a feature, not red tape: it is what separates a serious platform from an unaccountable one.
It means Floin AG has been authorized as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) under MiCAR, pursuant to Article 63, effective 10 June 2026. The authorization confirms that Floin meets the regulation's requirements for governance, security, safeguarding of client assets, and ongoing supervision.
Put simply: Floin operates inside a regulated framework, not outside one.
Yes. Floin AG is a regulated crypto-asset service provider, authorized under MiCAR and supervised by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA). The authorization covers core services, including holding and managing digital assets for clients, exchanging crypto-assets for fiat currency and for other crypto-assets, and facilitating transfers of crypto-assets.
Floin's authorization was granted by the Liechtenstein Financial Market Authority (FMA) — the independent body responsible for authorizing and supervising crypto-asset service providers in Liechtenstein, an EEA member that applies the EU's MiCAR framework.
It means the platform you use is held to a defined, EU-wide standard — and supervised against it. In practice, that brings clearer information about the services you use, defined safeguards for the assets Floin holds on your behalf, transparent communication of risk, and a regulated provider that answers to a financial supervisor.
You get the openness of crypto with the protections of a regulated framework.
MiCA strengthens the framework around how your assets are held and managed. As a regulated CASP, Floin must meet requirements for safeguarding client assets, operational resilience, and security — and is supervised against them.
It is worth being clear about what this does and does not cover: regulation governs how Floin operates and protects the assets in its custody. It does not remove the market risk of the crypto-assets themselves — their value can still rise and fall.
No. MiCA governs how crypto-asset service providers operate, safeguard client assets, and communicate risk. It does not protect against market movements. The value of crypto-assets can rise and fall, and you can lose money. Before making any investment decision, always conduct your own research.
Nothing changes in how you use Floin day to day. Your account, your wallets, and your assets stay exactly as they are. The authorization formalizes the regulated framework Floin already works within — you simply continue using the platform as usual.
No. There is nothing you need to do. Your account and assets are unaffected, and you can continue using Floin as usual. If anything ever needs your attention — a verification step, for example — we will always contact you directly.
