Solv Protocol Secures EU MiCA Registration for Bitcoin Yield Platform

Solv Protocol has announced that its native SOLV token has achieved full registration under the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, with the Netherlands serving as its home member state.

The MiCA registration allows Solv to offer its token across all 27 EU member states under the bloc's unified disclosure framework, according to the announcement today. The protocol operates a platform for on-chain, yield-generating Bitcoin reserves with over $1.18 billion in total assets under management as of January 2026.

Solv notes that its xSolvBTC product has more than $183 million circulating across multiple blockchain networks, the company said. Through integrations with DeFi platforms including Lista DAO, Venus, Pendle Finance and Morpho, SolvBTC has enabled over $310 million in active loan volume.

The SOLV token will be listed on European exchanges Bitvavo and Bitpanda following the registration, providing access for retail and institutional investors across the EU.

Ryan Chow, co-founder of Solv Protocol, said the registration enables regulated funds, banks and fintech firms across Europe to earn yields and build products on-chain without relying on centralized custodians.

Solv is expanding beyond Bitcoin finance into tokenized real-world assets, combining Bitcoin liquidity with tokenized instruments such as Treasury bills, credit portfolios, money market funds and equities. The protocol recently launched the SolvBTC.RWA Vault on BNB Chain in collaboration with BNB Chain, designed to give institutions onchain access to tokenized treasuries and investment-grade credit.

Crossmint Secures Authorization

The MiCA framework, which became fully enforceable in 2025, establishes unified rules for crypto-asset service providers across the EU.

Last week, wallet infrastructure platform Crossmint secured MiCA authorization from Spain's Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, becoming a regulated Crypto-Asset Service Provider with passporting rights across all EU member states. Crossmint's authorization allows the company to offer embedded wallets, exchanges and cross-border transfers through a single platform.

The company said in a statement that its MiCA status positions it among a limited group of infrastructure providers offering comprehensive digital asset capabilities with EU-wide regulatory compliance as the grandfathering period for non-compliant assets ends in July 2026.

"We built Crossmint to be a global digital asset platform from day one," Rodri Fernández Touza, co-founder of Crossmint, said. "A MiCA authorization means our clients get a full stack solution compliant across the EU, all through one integration."

Which Altcoins Stand to Gain from the SEC’s New ETF Listing Standards?

Which Altcoins Stand to Gain from the SEC’s New ETF Listing Standards?

On Wednesday, the US SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) took a landmark step in crypto regulation, approving generic listing standards for spot crypto ETFs (exchange-traded funds). This new framework eliminates the case-by-case 19b-4 approval process, streamlining the path for multiple digital asset ETFs to enter the market in the coming weeks. Grayscale’s Multi-Crypto Milestone Grayscale secured a first-mover advantage as its Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) received approval under the new listing standards. Products that will be traded under the ticker GDLC include Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. “Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund $GDLC was just approved for trading along with the Generic Listing Standards. The Grayscale team is working expeditiously to bring the FIRST multi-crypto asset ETP to market with Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano,” wrote Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg. The approval marks the US’s first diversified, multi-crypto ETP, signaling a shift toward broader portfolio products rather than single-asset ETFs. Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas explained that around 12–15 cryptocurrencies now qualify for spot ETF consideration. However, this is contingent on the altcoins having established futures trading on Coinbase Derivatives for at least six months. This includes well-known altcoins like Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), and Chainlink (LINK), alongside the majors already included in Grayscale’s GDLC. Altcoins in the Spotlight Amid New Era of ETF Eligibility Several assets have already met the key condition, regulated futures trading on Coinbase. For example, Solana futures launched in February 2024, making the token eligible as of August 19. “The SEC approved generic ETF listing standards. Assets with a regulated futures contract trading for 6 months qualify for a spot ETF. Solana met this criterion on Aug 19, 6 months after SOL futures launched on Coinbase Derivatives,” SolanaFloor indicated. Crypto investors and communities also identified which tokens stand to gain. Chainlink community liaison Zach Rynes highlighted that LINK could soon see its own ETF. He noted that both Bitwise and Grayscale have already filed applications. Meanwhile, the Litecoin Foundation indicated that the new standards provide the regulatory framework for LTC to be listed on US exchanges. Hedera is also in the spotlight, with digital asset investor Mark anticipating an HBAR ETF. Market observers see the decision as a potential turning point for broader adoption, bringing the much-needed clarity and accessibility for investors. At the same time, it boosts confidence in the market’s maturity. The general sentiment is that with the SEC’s approval, the next phase of crypto ETFs is no longer a question of ‘if,’ but ‘when.’ The shift to generic listing standards could expand the US-listed digital asset ETFs roster beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. Such a move would usher in new investment vehicles covering a dozen or more altcoins. This represents the clearest path yet toward mainstream, regulated access to diversified crypto exposure. More importantly, it comes without the friction of direct custody. “We’re gonna be off to the races in a matter of weeks,” ETF analyst James Seyffart quipped.
