Is Coinone MiCA-licensed?
Status checked on 2 August 2026 against the official ESMA register
Coinone does not hold a verified MiCA CASP licence. Coinone is registered with South Korea’s KoFIU and uses real-name KRW banking through Kakao Bank. Trading requires Korean residency, so Coinone does not serve EEA users. It is not on the ESMA CASP register.
Practical effect: Coinone has no verified CASP authorisation. Check the contracting entity and any separate permissions before you rely on MiCA conduct, safeguarding or complaint rights.

Common questions
Can I still use Coinone from the EU?
MiCA does not itself make account holding illegal. National and product rules can still apply. Since 1 July 2026, an in-scope provider generally needs an Article 63 authorisation or an eligible Article 60 notification route. Coinone can apply location restrictions or close user accounts.
Is money on Coinone protected under MiCA?
Coinone has no verified CASP authorisation. Do not assume that MiCA conduct, safeguarding or EU-regulator complaint rights apply to the service. Verify the contracting entity and any separate permissions.
Is there a MiCA-licensed alternative to Coinone?
Yes. 51 of the exchanges we track have current MiCA register entries. The licensed list shows each mapped entity, regulator and entry date.
