The MiCA Register is a read-only lookup over the EU register of crypto-asset entities, sourced from ESMA. It answers who is licensed, under which category, in which member state, and whether an entity is flagged as non-compliant. Every endpoint here is a query. Nothing on this surface writes.

Base Path

Requests authenticate with a MiCA API key in the X-API-Key header. It is a separate key from an instance API key and carries no instance scope, because the data is public register data rather than your own. See Authentication.

Rate Limits

MiCA API keys are rate-limited per key. Exceeding the limit returns 429 with a Retry-After header. See Rate Limits for current thresholds.

Caching

All responses include Cache-Control headers. List and statistics endpoints cache for 5 minutes, detail endpoints for 10 minutes. The X-Data-Source response header indicates whether the result was served from cache, database, or is empty.
