Zerohash Europe has obtained authorization under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) framework from the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), allowing the company to offer regulated crypto-asset and stablecoin infrastructure services throughout the European Economic Area (EEA).
With this approval, Zerohash Europe can now provide embedded business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C) crypto and stablecoin services, enabling financial institutions, banks, and payment platforms to integrate compliant digital asset products for customers across Europe.
Founded in 2017, the Zerohash Group powers crypto and stablecoin infrastructure for major partners, including Interactive Brokers, Morgan Stanley, Franklin Templeton, Securitize, tastytrade, Stripe, Worldpay, Shift4, and Public.com.
The MiCAR license strengthens the company’s “embed-once, scale-globally” model, which allows partners to quickly launch digital asset services while ensuring full regulatory coverage in every operating region.
“Securing MiCAR authorization is a major step in our mission to make digital assets accessible in a safe, trusted way,” said Edward Woodford, Founder and CEO of the Zerohash Group. “We believe blockchain technology will become integral to financial institutions, and this milestone expands that vision across Europe under a harmonized regulatory regime.”
Roeland Goldberg, Management Board Member of Zerohash Europe, noted that Europe’s regulatory clarity is accelerating institutional adoption. “With MiCAR now implemented, banks, fintechs, and payment platforms are actively exploring stablecoins, tokenization, and embedded crypto rails,” he said.
Through its API-first platform, Zerohash Europe enables partners to integrate services such as on-chain transfers, crypto custody, and stablecoin transactions seamlessly. The company ensures full compliance and operational safety through a segregated, bankruptcy-remote custody trust foundation.
The MiCAR authorization adds to Zerohash’s expanding global regulatory footprint, which includes licenses in the U.S., Bermuda, Canada, Australia, and across Latin America.
Earlier in 2025, the company completed a $104 million Series D-2 funding round backed by Interactive Brokers, Morgan Stanley, and others, underscoring its growing influence in institutional digital asset infrastructure.
