Slovenia joins EU’s MiCA stablecoin register with first issuer
Slovenia appeared for the first time in the EU MiCA register of electronic money token (EMT) issuers after Dinaro, a Slovenia-based electronic money institution supervised by the Bank of Slovenia, was added to ESMA’s latest update. Dinaro offers payment services such as card issuing and acquiring and says it holds Mastercard principal membership. Its inclusion brings the EMT register to 43 entries and marks the first Slovenia-based issuer in the dataset. The update also changed the EU register of authorized crypto-asset service providers (CASPs), which now lists 325 firms. New additions include Czech lender Partners Banka and Germany’s Volksbank Beilstein-Ilsfeld-Abstatt. Czech company Altlift was removed from the CASP register. The ART register stayed empty, and the non-compliant entity list remained at 167.
