What this means for EU users
XT.COM has run since 2018 as a mid-tier, altcoin-heavy exchange — it lists a broad set of lower-cap token perpetuals, often ahead of the top venues, and charges a comparatively high 0.20% base spot fee. It publishes no EU-authorized operating entity, is not in the ESMA CASP register, and has announced no public MiCA application.
For EU/EEA users this means XT.COM has no MiCA licence after July 1, 2026 and cannot legally onboard EEA retail customers. Users trading there rely on the platform’s offshore terms, without the EU custody, complaint-handling or prudential safeguards a CASP authorization requires.
