Belgian Regulator Identifies Six Unlicensed Crypto Operators Following MiCA Enforcement

The Belgian Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) has officially identified six cryptocurrency service providers operating without mandatory Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) credentials. The entities named include Aurum Foundation, Bank Bit, Bithf Pro, Dxago, Global Dynamic Trade, and ZeriaFunding, all of which have been added to the regulator's warning database. This enforcement action follows the full implementation of the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, which mandates that all crypto service providers secure official authorization to operate within the bloc. The FSMA emphasized that these unlicensed platforms expose Belgian residents to significant risks, including market volatility and a lack of traditional financial compensation safeguards. By publicly naming these firms, the regulator is shifting from framework development to active compliance enforcement to protect consumers from potential fraud. This development underscores the tightening regulatory environment for digital asset firms, as the grace period for existing operators concluded on July 1, 2026. The move serves as a critical reminder for market participants to verify authorization status against official registries before engaging in any digital asset activities.
