San Francisco, CA — October 27th, 2025 — ZetaChain, the Universal Blockchain connecting all chains, has officially published its Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) white paper in accordance with EU Regulation (EU) 2023/1114. This milestone positions ZETA among the first Layer 1 network tokens to achieve MiCAR compliance, enhancing accessibility for users and institutions across the European Economic Area (EEA).

This follows ZETA’s official recognition by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) under its Crypto Token Regime, reinforcing ZetaChain’s role as a globally compliant blockchain network.

Expanding Universal Blockchain Access in Europe

The Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) establishes a unified legal framework for crypto-asset issuers and service providers operating within the EU. With this compliance, ZETA’s listing and distribution across EU-licensed exchanges continues under a transparent standard.

We’re proud to be one of the first Layer 1 projects to get the MiCA license and are excited to enable broader European participation from both retail and institutional users. Achieving MiCAR compliance reflects our long-term commitment to responsible innovation and user protection.

ZetaChain Recognition in Dubai

In addition to MiCAR compliance in Europe, ZetaChain has also been officially recognized by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) under its Crypto Token Regime. This recognition authorizes the use of ZETA within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

Global Recognition and Universal Blockchain Access

Together, MiCAR and DFSA compliance demonstrate ZetaChain’s commitment to meeting the world’s highest standards of regulatory clarity and accessibility.

Both the European Union and the United Arab Emirates are shaping the future of digital asset regulation, and their recognition of ZETA demonstrates ZetaChain’s leadership in responsible, blockchain innovation.

These milestones mark ZetaChain’s continued progress toward our mission to make Web3 as seamless and interoperable as the internet for both humans and AI.
