What does it actually take to wind down a crypto exchange responsibly?
Following the withdrawal of Kriptomat's MiCA application, Delphine Forma speaks with Dejan Davidovič about one of the least discussed areas of crypto compliance: how to close a regulated business while continuing to protect customers and meet regulatory expectations.
Together they explore how Kriptomat designed its wind-down strategy, communicated transparently with customers, selected Kraken as its migration partner, managed dormant accounts and asset delistings, and continued meeting its AML and reporting obligations long after trading had stopped.
They also discuss the regulatory uncertainty surrounding firms caught between legacy licensing regimes and MiCA, why clear regulatory guidance on wind-downs is still missing, and the lessons every compliance officer, founder and policymaker should take from the first generation of MiCA applications.
Whether you're preparing for authorisation, managing regulatory change or simply interested in the realities of running a regulated crypto business, this episode offers practical insights rarely shared in public.
