Bitpanda in the register

ESMA’s entry for BP23 CA Limited covers six of the ten MiCA services: custody and administration of crypto-assets (a), exchanging crypto-assets for funds (c), exchanging crypto-assets for other crypto-assets (d), executing orders for clients (e), receiving and transmitting orders (g) and transfer services (j).

ESMA records no Article 65 notification for BP23 CA Limited. The entity may provide its MiCA services to clients in Malta, and needs a notification before it serves other EEA states.

It is among the earliest MiCA entities in Malta: none of the other 22 current entities there has an earlier authorisation date. One other current entity there holds exactly the same service letters.
