The license allows B2C2 to extend over-the-counter spot trading services across all EU member states and three EEA countries through MiCA's passporting regime, enabling cross-border access to digital asset liquidity under a unified regulatory framework, the company said in a statement on Friday.
The company added that the approval marks B2C2 as the first global OTC liquidity provider to secure a CASP license. The firm previously registered as a virtual asset service provider in Luxembourg in 2024.
"Obtaining MiCA authorisation is a significant accomplishment for B2C2," B2C2 CEO Thomas Restout said in the statement. "It demonstrates the regulatory and operational standards we operate under, and reflects our long-standing focus on regulatory compliance and governance."
The development comes as the July 2026 deadline for the MiCA transition period approaches, the company said. The framework was proposed by the European Commission in 2020, adopted by the European Parliament in 2023, and has been fully applicable to crypto firms since December 2024,
With the latest approval, B2C2 joins a growing group of companies operating under MiCA licenses across Europe, including Coinbase in Luxembourg and Kraken in Ireland.
