The Alliance provides its members with exclusive access to advanced tools, and the expertise to write members’ white papers. In addition, the Alliance holds the world’s largest crypto database for ESG/sustainability indicators allowing this organisation to establish frameworks designed to measure and report sustainability indicators effectively. This collaboration will enable YouHodler to enhance its sustainability reporting capabilities, ensuring it stays at the forefront of regulatory compliance while promoting positive industry change.
“We are thrilled to join the MiCA Crypto Alliance and contribute to its mission of promoting sustainability, collaboration, and compliance within the crypto industry,” said Ilya Volkov, CEO and Co-founder of YouHodler. “YouHodler is committed to working alongside fellow members to set practical standards, drive responsible practices, and ensure that the future of crypto is transparent, environmentally sustainable, and fully MiCA compliant.”
Juan Ignacio Ibañez, General Secretary, MiCA Crypto Alliance, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration: “YouHodler's membership amplifies the MiCA Crypto Alliance's mission to drive clarity, fairness, and sustainability throughout the crypto industry. As facilitators and coordinators between CASPs and exchanges on one side, and crypto projects on another, leading all parties in publishing MiCA white papers with our ESG data which is the largest database currently out in the industry. We are excited to join forces to set new benchmarks in responsible industry practices.”
