Acheron Trading Breaks Ground as First Crypto Market Maker to Snag MiCA CASP License

Acheron Trading becomes first crypto market maker to secure CASP license under MiCA

Move over, traditional finance—Acheron just rewrote the rulebook. The crypto market maker scored the first-ever CASP license under Europe’s MiCA framework, putting regulators on notice that DeFi isn’t asking for permission anymore.

Why it matters: This isn’t just paperwork—it’s a Trojan horse. By playing nice with EU bureaucrats, Acheron gets to legally dismantle their system from the inside. Talk about beating them at their own game.

The cynical take: Watch legacy banks suddenly ’discover’ crypto liquidity needs now that there’s a licensed player doing it properly. Where were these compliance hawks when Bitcoin was fighting for survival in 2018?
