Compliance and deployment

MiCA

MiCA, the EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, creates a unified European regime for crypto-asset services and stablecoin issuance, with custody obligations including segregation of client assets, liability for losses, and governance of key management. It makes custody architecture a licensing question across the EU.

Custody obligations under MiCA

Custodians must segregate client crypto-assets, maintain access to keys under robust internal controls, and answer for losses of custodied assets, which pushes licensed firms toward certified hardware, quorum governance, and provable key control.

Taurus supports MiCA-aligned deployments through segregated wallet models, HSM-rooted key sovereignty, and the audit evidence, ISAE 3402 Type II and audited key ceremonies, that license applications and supervisors expect.

MiCA, explained

Does MiCA cover tokenized securities?
No, instruments qualifying as financial instruments stay under MiFID and national securities law; MiCA covers crypto-assets outside that perimeter, including most stablecoins. Banks typically need both stacks on one platform.
