EU CASP compliance
MiCA-era crypto address screening for CASPs
Eagle Eye Report helps sanctions and AML teams review an address before funds move. It keeps covered government sanctions sources separate from recorded stablecoin blacklist, freeze, and seizure actions, then adds bridge and mixer interaction indicators as context for review.

- Public stablecoin control actions

The MiCA transition has ended; the control work continues
MiCA generally applied from 30 December 2024, with its asset-referenced-token and e-money-token titles applying from 30 June 2024. Article 143 allowed some providers already operating under national law to continue only until authorization was granted or refused, or until 1 July 2026 at the latest. ESMA confirmed that the remaining EU transitional periods ended on 1 July 2026. Member States could use shorter periods, so a CASP should confirm its own authorization status with its competent authority. Read Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 on EUR-Lex and ESMA’s June 2026 statement.

Use the right regulatory reference for the right control
A credible control map should distinguish governance, market abuse, transfer information, sanctions, and AML review instead of treating them as one requirement.
MiCA Article 68
Governance, procedures, systems, and records
Article 68 requires effective policies and procedures, AML-related arrangements under applicable national law, resilient systems, and records of services, activities, orders, and transactions. Those records are kept for five years and, when a competent authority requests it before that period expires, up to seven years. Check the official text.
MiCA Article 92
Market-abuse prevention and detection
Article 92 concerns arrangements for preventing and detecting market abuse and reporting reasonable suspicions about orders or transactions. It is not a general label for sanctions or AML screening. Eagle Eye Report should therefore be treated as a separate address-screening input, not an Article 92 solution. Check the official text.
Regulation (EU) 2023/1113
Information accompanying crypto transfers
The EU Transfer of Funds Regulation applies to covered crypto-asset transfers and addresses originator and beneficiary information as well as internal controls for restrictive measures. Address screening can inform a decision before a transfer, but it does not replace the required information exchange. Read the regulation on EUR-Lex.
Where Eagle Eye Report fits in a CASP review
Use the report as evidence for review at a customer-controlled decision point—not as a license, filing, or automated conclusion.
Start with sanctions
Check whether the submitted address appears in a covered government sanctions source. The report identifies the authority and source so the team can apply its own escalation procedure.
Review stablecoin control actions separately
A blacklist, freeze, or seizure recorded publicly on-chain is a different evidence class from a government designation. Review the action, the company or organization behind the token, and the available source context.
Add source-of-funds context
A recorded bridge or mixer interaction can help frame enhanced due diligence. It is a review indicator, not evidence of purpose, intent, or wrongdoing.
Screen → Review → Route → Monitor
Screen before onboarding, crediting, release, treasury, or collateral activity according to your procedures. Review each evidence class, route the result through your existing escalation path, and monitor selected addresses for later covered updates. Eagle Eye Report supplies the evidence; your team owns the investigation, record, and decision.
MiCA address-screening questions
Does Eagle Eye Report make a CASP compliant with MiCA?
No. Eagle Eye Report supplies address-screening evidence for a compliance team to review. Authorization, governance, customer due diligence, Travel Rule messaging, market-abuse controls, reporting, and legal interpretation remain the CASP’s responsibility.
What does MiCA Article 68 cover?
Article 68 addresses governance arrangements. Among other requirements, it covers effective policies and procedures, AML-related arrangements under national law, resilient systems, and records of services, activities, orders, and transactions.
Is MiCA Article 92 an AML transaction-monitoring rule?
Article 92 is specifically about preventing and detecting market abuse. Sanctions and AML address screening may be part of a wider control environment, but it should not be described as satisfying Article 92 by itself.
How does address screening relate to the EU Transfer of Funds Regulation?
The Transfer of Funds Regulation sets requirements for information accompanying covered crypto-asset transfers. Eagle Eye Report can add sanctions and public on-chain evidence to a pre-transfer review, but it does not collect or transmit the required originator and beneficiary information.
