Paris, June 30, 2025 – Bitstack, France’s leading Bitcoin savings app with over 200,000 users, has become one of the first French companies to obtain a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) license under the MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) regulation, issued by the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF). This strategic regulatory achievement places Bitstack among the first movers in European crypto compliance, laying the foundation for expansion across a unified and secure European market.


In force since December 30, 2024, the MiCA regulation standardizes crypto-asset rules across the European Union, setting rigorous requirements around governance, transparency, security, oversight, and anti-money laundering.

By securing one of the first MiCA licenses, Bitstack affirms its capacity to meet the EU’s highest regulatory standards. For users, it offers enhanced protection, trust, and transparency. For Bitstack, it opens the door to seamless EU-wide operations without the need for additional licenses.

“The MiCA license validates our rigorous approach, focused on security, transparency, and simplicity. It’s a passport to Europe that will allow us to accelerate our mission: to democratize Bitcoin savings and make it accessible to millions of Europeans,” says Alexandre Roubaud, Co-founder and CEO of Bitstack.

Bitstack: Making Bitcoin Savings Simple, Automatic, and Secure

Since launching in 2022, Bitstack has revolutionized Bitcoin savings with a user-friendly suite of features:

  • Automatic round-ups on everyday purchases (e.g., a coffee at €2.60 rounds up to €3, with the €0.40 difference invested in Bitcoin)
  • Recurring Bitcoin purchases (e.g., €25 weekly)
  • Instant buy/sell starting from just €1
  • Effortless Bitcoin transfers directly through the app

Built on a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy, Bitstack enables long-term investing through consistent purchases, helping users smooth market volatility and capture Bitcoin’s long-term growth.

With over 200,000 users and more than €200 million saved in Bitcoin, Bitstack is now the most trusted app in France for secure, responsible, and intuitive Bitcoin savings.

From French Leader to European Expansion

Securing the MiCA license is a pivotal step in Bitstack’s mission to scale across Europe and reshape traditional finance with a modern, Bitcoin-based alternative.

“We’re building the best Bitcoin savings solution in Europe, with a strong focus on ease of use and regulatory compliance. This license is both a mark of trust and a powerful lever to scale our mission,” adds Alexandre Roubaud.

A Bold Vision: Building the Bank of Tomorrow

Following a €5 million funding round in December 2024, Bitstack is preparing to launch new services:

  • A bank account with IBAN
  • A Visa debit card offering Bitcoin rewards

These upcoming features will further elevate the user experience and reinforce Bitstack’s position as a regulated, comprehensive, and forward-thinking financial platform.
