Digital Assets & MiCAR

The regulatory framework for crypto services is in place. Those who master it turn supervisory law into a competitive advantage.

Market situation

With MiCAR, a uniform supervisory regime for crypto service providers applies across the EEA. In Liechtenstein, MiCAR has replaced the former TVTG transition regime; providers must demonstrate governance, risk and compliance structures at MiCAR level. In Switzerland, the upcoming AMLA revision extends due diligence duties, while SRO affiliation remains the regulatory anchor for many providers. In parallel, stablecoins and tokenisation projects are professionalising towards institutional use.

Rising curve: regulatory maturity as a growth driver

Our starting point

We co-built a MiCAR-regulated digital asset exchange in Liechtenstein with personal board responsibility: governance architecture, risk management framework, AML/KYC policies, transaction monitoring and the authorisation process with the FMA. Today we support digital asset firms and banks with digital asset ambitions along the entire path:

Licensing and MiCAR transition: strategy, application, dialogue with the authority.
Compliance architecture: AML/KYC, Travel Rule, transaction monitoring, DDA requirements.
RegTech selection: vendor-independent selection and introductions for KYC, KYB, KYT, Travel Rule, on-chain risk analysis and identity verification.
Tool calibration: translating AML policy and risk appetite into rules, thresholds and alerts of the analytics solutions in use. Aragon eXeed is Scorechain’s implementation partner for the DACH region.
Ecosystem access: contacts to crypto-friendly banks, market makers, OTC desks, law firms and RegTech providers in Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Austria.
Board functions and substance in Liechtenstein and Switzerland.

For banks

Banks building a digital asset offering get both from us: the risk management and governance language of a global bank and the operational knowledge of custody, OTC, market making and blockchain analytics. That shortens internal learning curves and external discussions.
