Bull Bitcoin has obtained the MICA license in France. Users from member states of the European Union will continue to be able to use Bull Bitcoin's bitcoin exchange and payment services legally without any interruption or reduction in service.

We are particularly excited to have obtained our MICA license without needing to compromise on our cypherpunk approach to self-custody and privacy. All features of our website and wallet will remain exactly the same as they have been for the first half of 2026, with no additional burden or restrictions imposed on our users. We have proven that it is possible to meet the highest requirements of regulatory compliance without becoming overzealous.

We are also extremely proud to report that we have passed PASSI and DORA cybersecurity audits (required for MICA) without having outsourced our core Bitcoin infrastructure to hosted third party software providers, which would have been easier and cheaper but would have made us dependent on external services and compromised our sovereignty. That was a huge win.

This nearly 3 year effort was entirely self-financed. No external investors or lenders were sollicitated. This reflects Bull Bitcoin's reputation, our record of flawless execution and our long-term sustainability. I am extremely proud of our team.

Having secured a long-term foothold in Europe, our ambition is global domination and setting a new standard on how to build the infrastructure Bitcoin deserves.
