Europe Had 3,167 Crypto Firms – After July 1st, Just 244 Are Legal
MiCA’s licensing deadline has quietly erased up to 92% of Europe’s crypto companies, concentrated what survived in Germany, and left the world’s largest exchange and largest stablecoin outside the regulated market.

Vilnius, Lithuania- On July 1st, the transitional window under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) closed for good, with no extension. When it did, just 244 firms held a full crypto-asset service provider (CASP) licence — down from more than 3,167 entities that operated across Europe under national registrations before MiCA. Measured against that base, roughly 92% of the market did not survive the transition; even against a narrower count of about 1,200 formally registered firms, four in five did not convert.
A new analysis from independent research publication Stack & Story, “Survival of the Licensed,” maps who cleared the bar, who did not, and what the cull means for the future of European crypto. The full piece, with data visualisations, is available at stackandstory.com.
Key findings
- A market cut to a fraction. 244 authorised CASPs remain across 25 jurisdictions, alongside 20 licensed e-money-token (stablecoin) issuers and zero authorised asset-referenced-token issuers — not a single multi-asset stablecoin cleared the bar.
- Germany won the reset. With 57 licences (about 23% of the entire bloc) and top passporting-hub status, Germany now hosts more than double second-placed France and the Netherlands (26 each).
- Five member states issued none. Greece, Hungary, Poland, Portugal and Romania granted zero authorisations. Poland could not license anyone at all, after its implementing law was repeatedly vetoed by the president.
- The biggest names are out. Binance withdrew its application days before the deadline and restricted EU services; Tether never applied, and licensed exchanges delisted its USDT, cutting Europe’s regulated venues off from roughly $185 billion of the world’s most-traded stablecoin. Circle (USDC and EURC) is the only top-ten stablecoin issuer that qualified.
- A last-minute scramble. More than a third of all licences were granted in the final ten weeks, as the count jumped from 177 in late April to 244 by July 2.
- Concentration by design. Only 14 firms across the EU were authorised to run a full order-book trading platform — the venues where crypto prices are formed now run through a very small number of licensed hands.
“The headline number is dramatic, but the real story is structural. Europe traded breadth for order. It now has a licensed, passportable, institution-ready core — and it paid for that with a long tail of small firms and the absence of the world’s largest exchange and stablecoin from its regulated venues. And the rulebook everyone just raced to meet is already being rewritten: the Commission opened a MiCA review the same week the deadline passed,” said a spokesperson for Stack & Story.
The analysis draws on ESMA statements and interim-register data, register mirrors (CASPTracker, Helms Advisory), Coincub’s pre-MiCA registration counts, and a Finray classification of successful authorisations. Stack & Story notes that “survival rate” is not an official metric and presents both the 7.7% (widest base) and ~20% (narrow base) framings; the 244 figure is a post-deadline register read.

KM Global Capital Launches as the UK’s First Accredited Sharia-Compliant Proprietary Trading Firm
Manchester-based firm offers funded accounts of up to $400,000, swap-free Islamic trading built in from day one, and a single-step path to funding
United Kingdom, 3rd Jul 2026 — KM Global Capital has officially launched from its headquarters in Manchester, entering the market as the United Kingdom’s first accredited Sharia-compliant proprietary trading firm. The firm gives skilled traders access to funded accounts of up to $400,000, built around a swap-free, riba-free (interest-free) structure designed to meet Islamic finance principles without compromising on modern trading conditions. Its Sharia compliance accreditation has been granted by Compliance, giving the firm a level of formal credibility rare among prop firms that only market themselves as “Islamic-friendly.”

The launch positions KM Global Capital at the intersection of two growing markets: proprietary trading, where talented traders seek access to capital without risking their own funds, and Islamic finance, where demand for genuinely compliant, transparent trading products has been rising steadily across the UK and internationally. Notably, the firm was founded by a 26-year-old entrepreneur — giving it a founder’s-eye understanding of exactly what the current generation of traders wants from a prop firm, and shaping a company built around transparency and trader-first rules rather than legacy industry conventions.
A Growing Industry, A Persistent Gap
Proprietary trading firms — commonly known as “prop firms” — allow traders to prove their skill through an evaluation process and then trade using the firm’s capital rather than their own, sharing in the profits they generate. The model has become popular with retail traders around the world because it removes the barrier of needing large amounts of personal capital to trade meaningfully in markets such as forex, indices, and commodities.
However, the overwhelming majority of prop firms operate on conventional account structures that include swap fees, overnight interest charges, and margin-based mechanisms that conflict with Islamic finance principles. A number of firms have introduced “Islamic accounts” as an add-on, but these are often modified versions of a conventional product rather than a structure built from the ground up around Sharia compliance. This has left many Muslim traders in a difficult position: either accept features that sit uneasily with their religious principles, or step back from an industry that has otherwise opened trading opportunities to a much wider pool of participants.
KM Global Capital says it was built specifically to close that gap. Rather than layering a swap-free option onto a conventional trading model, the firm has structured its accounts around Sharia compliance as the default, not the exception, and has secured formal accreditation to support that positioning.
Key Highlights of the Launch
UK’s First Accredited Sharia-Compliant Prop Firm
KM Global Capital has secured Sharia compliance accreditation from Compliance, a distinction the company says makes it the first accredited Sharia-compliant prop trading firm based in the United Kingdom. This accreditation underpins the firm’s swap-free account structure and its broader commitment to operating outside interest-bearing (riba) mechanisms, giving traders a level of formal assurance that is often missing from firms that simply self-describe as compliant.
Swap-Free Islamic Accounts, Built In, Not Bolted On
Every account on the platform is swap-free by design, removing overnight interest charges and rollover fees that typically conflict with Islamic finance principles. This is not offered as a separate, optional product but is built into the firm’s account structure from the outset — making it naturally accessible to Muslim traders seeking halal trading conditions, while offering a cleaner, more transparent cost structure that may appeal to traders of any background.
Funded Accounts up to $400,000
Traders who successfully complete the evaluation process can be funded with up to $400,000 in trading capital, giving experienced traders access to meaningful buying power without having to commit their own capital to the market or take on the personal financial risk of trading a live account of that size.
1-Step Core Challenge
KM Global Capital’s flagship evaluation route is a 1-Step Core Challenge, a streamlined path to funding that avoids the multi-phase evaluation structures common at many prop firms. Where competitors often require traders to pass two or more separate phases before being funded, KM Global Capital’s single-step model simplifies the journey from application to funded trader, reducing both the time and uncertainty involved.
Leverage up to 1:200, Upgradeable to 1:400
Funded traders start with leverage of 1:200, with the option to upgrade to 1:400 — giving them flexibility to scale position sizing according to their strategy and risk tolerance, rather than being locked into a single fixed leverage level.
No Trailing Drawdown and No Consistency Rule
The firm has removed two of the most commonly criticized restrictions in the prop trading industry. Trailing drawdown rules, which reduce a trader’s allowable loss threshold as their account grows, are widely seen as one of the more punishing mechanics in funded trading. Consistency rules, which require profits to be spread evenly across trading days, can force traders into artificial patterns that don’t reflect how they’d naturally trade with their own capital. By removing both, KM Global Capital gives funded traders more freedom to trade in a way that reflects genuine skill and strategy.
Flexible Payment Options
KM Global Capital accepts both card and bank transfer payments, making it straightforward for traders across the UK and internationally to pay for challenges and receive payouts.
Why It Matters
By building Sharia compliance into its core account structure — rather than offering it as an add-on — KM Global Capital is targeting a real and, until now, largely unaddressed gap in the UK market for traders who want both professional-grade funding and religiously compliant trading conditions, backed by formal accreditation rather than marketing language alone.
At the same time, the firm’s broader feature set — a single-step challenge, high leverage ceilings, and the removal of trailing drawdown and consistency requirements — is designed to appeal to the wider funded trading community, not just Muslim traders. In an industry where traders increasingly compare firms on the basis of transparency, fairness of rules, and speed to funding, KM Global Capital is positioning itself as a modern, trader-first alternative in what has become a crowded and, at times, opaque market.
The company’s young leadership brings a first-hand understanding of these frustrations, but it’s the firm’s structure — its accreditation, its accounts, its rules — that forms the core of its offer to traders.
Looking Ahead
As the funded trading industry matures, scrutiny of how firms structure their evaluations, fund their capital, and treat traders after they pass a challenge is only likely to increase. KM Global Capital’s decision to seek formal Sharia compliance accreditation, rather than relying on self-certification, reflects a broader shift toward transparency and accountability in the sector.
The firm says this launch marks the beginning of its presence in the UK market, with further products, account types, and community initiatives expected to follow as the company grows.
