KBC Group will allow individual investors to trade Bitcoin and Ethereum on its Bolero platform starting the week of February 16, making it Belgium’s first bank to provide such services. Operating under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR), the bank will use a closed-loop trading model that prevents transfers outside the platform, enforce strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Know Your Transaction (KYT) procedures, and avoid offering investment advice. All crypto assets will be held in KBC custody to enhance security and compliance.
