MiCA White Paper · Ljubljana
Your MiCA-compliant white paper, drafted and filed.
// drafting · legal opinion · regulator filing.
Every token issuer targeting EU investors — directly or through centralized exchanges — needs a MiCA-compliant white paper and accompanying legal documentation. We handle everything: from drafting the documents to submitting them to the competent authority.
What is MiCA
The EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation sets the framework for crypto-asset service providers — with extraterritorial reach that binds anyone operating in the EU market, wherever they are based.
§ 01
If you offer a token in the EU, you need a white paper.
01
Offering to EU investors
Any issuer offering tokens to EU investors — directly or through CEXes — needs a MiCA-compliant white paper.
02
Based anywhere
MiCA's extraterritorial effect binds providers operating in the EU market, even when based outside the EU.
03
Filed, not just written
The white paper, marketing communications and notifications must be submitted to the competent authority.
