Who it’s for
Crypto-asset token issuers and crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) preparing for MiCA obligations in the EU.
What readiness means for MiCA
For MiCA, readiness means the issuer and/or CASP obligations relevant to your scope are evidenced — white paper, governance, prudential safeguards, complaints handling and custody controls.
How Netallion handles it
Your MiCA readiness journey
- 1
Scope role & obligations
Determine whether you are a token issuer, a crypto-asset service provider (CASP), or both, and scope only the issuer and/or CASP obligations relevant to your activity.
- 2
Map evidence to obligations
Attach the white paper, governance arrangements, safeguarding records and complaints procedures to the obligations they support, with ownership and review dates.
- 3
Assess evidence
Each obligation is assessed for whether the evidence substantiates it — prudential safeguards actually held, the required competent-authority notification made — not merely a drafted document.
- 4
Surface blockers
Obligations with missing or stale evidence — an unevidenced notification, an unsegregated client-asset arrangement — become explicit, ranked blockers.
- 5
Review & finalise
An authorised assessor reviews the determinations and pins a readiness conclusion; MiCA authorisation is granted by the national competent authority, not by Netallion.
The control library
What the MiCA library gives you
Obligation libraries (45) for both token issuers and crypto-asset service providers (CASPs).
A curated, versioned catalogue of this framework’s 45 obligation entries — with provenance — to collect, own, organise and track the currency of your evidence against.
From the field
Common MiCA blockers we find
Where evidence most often falls short — surfaced explicitly, not averaged away.
- A white paper is drafted but the required competent-authority notification is unevidenced, so the issuer step is incomplete.
- A CASP holds client crypto-assets but there is no evidence of segregation from the firm's own assets.
- Governance arrangements name responsible persons but the fit-and-proper evidence for them is missing.
- A complaints procedure is published but there is no log demonstrating complaints are actually handled and closed.

FAQ
MiCA readiness — common questions
Does Netallion grant MiCA authorisation?
No. MiCA authorisation or registration is granted by the relevant national competent authority. Netallion assesses your readiness against the applicable issuer and CASP obligations.
Do you cover both issuers and CASPs?
Yes — Netallion maintains obligation libraries for both, and scopes an engagement to the obligations relevant to your activity (45 obligations across both).
How does MiCA relate to DORA?
Many crypto-asset service providers are also in scope for DORA's operational-resilience requirements; the two are commonly assessed together.

Cross-framework leverage
Evidence you assemble for one framework often supports another. Commonly paired with:
Readiness, not certification. Netallion provides evidence assurance and readiness assessment; it does not issue or guarantee any formal outcome. Where a framework has a formal certification, attestation, authorisation or conformity-assessment scheme, that outcome remains with the appropriately authorised third party or authority. MiCA authorisation or registration is granted by the relevant national competent authority, not by any assessor. Where the boundary sits.
