the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) updated the provisional MiCA registry on Friday, adding 15 licensed crypto asset service providers (CASPs), bringing the total number to 309. The newly added institutions include BNY SA/NV, the Belgian subsidiary of US banking giant BNY Mellon. This latest batch includes four banking institutions, three of which are from Germany, alongside digital asset platforms such as BitPay, Coinify, and Bleap. Germany and Denmark each added three CASPs, Bulgaria and Latvia each added two, while Belgium, Cyprus, Liechtenstein, and the Netherlands each added one.

Following the previous transitional deadline on July 1, ESMA’s second update had added 14 CASPs, including Ripple Payments Europe.
