Whitepaper Template to Support Cardano’s MiCA Compliance

Providing a valuable resource to help projects navigate evolving crypto asset regulation

We are pleased to announce that, in cooperation with LAWSIDE and STADLER VÖLKEL, the Cardano Foundation has developed a whitepaper template for the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation.

The template is designed to help Cardano projects navigate the complexities of MiCA and support compliance with its disclosure requirements. This initiative further complements the publication of the Cardano network’s sustainability indicators earlier this year, which are part of MiCA’s whitepaper disclosure requirements. Together, these actions build on the Foundation’s efforts to enable regulatory compliance and demonstrate its commitment to supporting the Cardano ecosystem.

The whitepaper template is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license and can be used free of charge in the following formats:

The section below includes additional information and instructions. Neither this content nor the template or any document linked herein shall be considered legal advice and no liability is accepted. You use this template at your own risk.

Understanding and using the whitepaper template

MiCA establishes rules for the issuance, public offering, and listing of crypto assets in the European Union. Crypto projects based in the European Union or targeting the European market must adhere to these requirements. Specifically, MiCA requires publishing a whitepaper that provides comprehensive disclosure of key information, including the crypto asset’s purpose, underlying technology, associated risks, functionality, and issuer details. The whitepaper must also be registered with a national competent authority. These requirements aim to ensure transparency and protect those acquiring a particular crypto asset.

The provided whitepaper template is intended for tokens based on Cardano, which are not considered stablecoins under MiCA (“crypto-assets other than asset-referenced tokens or e-money tokens”; generally “utility tokens”). It is crucial to use this template for the intended type of token, read the instructions carefully, and consult with qualified advisors.

Supporting Cardano’s resilience and compliance

The Foundation again expresses gratitude for the collaboration with LAWSIDE and STADLER VÖLKEL, helping to deliver this template.

We will continue our efforts to support the Cardano ecosystem in navigating the evolving regulatory landscape, with further updates and resources already in development.
