XDC Network Joins the MiCA Crypto Alliance

XDC Network has officially joined the MiCA Crypto Alliance, bringing with it a strong focus on real-world blockchain applications and a clear commitment to regulation, transparency, and long-term trust. This partnership adds valuable perspective to the Alliance’s mission: helping Europe build a responsible and forward-thinking digital asset economy.

A Layer 1 blockchain built for real-world use, XDC Network stands out for its hybrid infrastructure. It gives enterprises the benefits of public blockchains—openness, traceability, transparency, while still offering the control, speed, and privacy that private networks provide. This setup has made XDC a strong fit for industries where regulatory compliance and secure data handling aren’t optional but essential.

Over the past few years, XDC has focused on bridging traditional finance and decentralised technologies. It’s already active in trade finance, cross-border payments, and the tokenisation of real-world assets areas where regulation is tight, and the margin for error is low. That experience makes it well-placed to contribute to the Alliance’s work around MiCA (the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation), especially as European regulators move to bring structure and clarity to the crypto space.

Saloi Benbaha, Head of Enterprise Alliance & Ventures at XDC Network, shared her thoughts on the partnership:

“Partnering with the MiCA Crypto Alliance is a key step for us. As blockchain matures, building trust through transparency and compliance becomes non-negotiable. We want to be part of shaping the future of the space, especially here in Europe where policy is moving quickly. This is about more than ticking boxes—it’s about doing the hard work to make blockchain fit for purpose in the real world.”

By joining the Alliance, XDC will participate in technical working groups, regulatory discussions, and ecosystem-wide collaborations that aim to support MiCA compliance and encourage sustainable growth. Its focus on practical deployment, especially within highly regulated environments, adds an important voice to the mix.

The MiCA Crypto Alliance was created to bring together key players from across the crypto space protocol builders, compliance experts, institutional partners, and policymakers. The goal is to drive open, constructive conversations around regulation and help ensure the long-term credibility of blockchain in Europe.

XDC’s membership reflects a shared belief in this mission: that innovation and regulation can and should work together. As Europe begins enforcing MiCA, collaborations like this will be critical to making regulation workable in practice, not just in theory.

We look forward to working closely with the XDC Network team to help move the industry forward, one practical step at a time.
