🟢 Special MiCA episode hosted by Alex Fazel.
🟢 The opportunity
- On July 1st, MiCA comes into full effect: 50+ exchanges lose access to the European market overnight.
- Some are already packing up: Luno is falling back on the US and Africa, Gemini is dropping the EU/UK to serve only Americans, Bitget is excluding FR users, KuCoin is stalling on its MiCA licence, etc.
- The result: ~7.6 million Europeans are about to be left without their platform and looking for somewhere to land.
- And that figure doesn't even include Binance: if it falls too, that's +30 million users, i.e. potentially 35 to 50 million accounts in motion.
- This is the biggest window SwissBorg has ever had, hence a call to the community as well, to help capture the wave.
🟢 The great consolidation
- This upheaval isn't an accident but a logical step: as regulators recognise the sector, the market gets cleaned up and consolidates around compliant players. It's a phenomenon set to repeat in many countries.
- The message hammered home during the session: flip the "regulator = constraint" reflex. Here they're presented as allies who protect users, prevent the commingling of funds, and keep watch so no one gets fleeced.
🟢 The "SwissBorg" difference
- MiCA licence via France's AMF, regarded as the gold standard of regulation (as opposed to Malta, known for rubber-stamping applications a little too quickly).
- A proudly Swiss DNA: "Engineered in Switzerland, licensed in Europe."
- Even against credible European players (Bitvavo, Bitpanda, Trade Republic): 90% of employees are Swiss or EU nationals, and 88% reside there.
- The real marker: SwissBorg isn't VC-backed but community-backed. No institutional shareholders to please first, a positioning no European competitor can claim.
🟢 The risk: don't get FTX'd
- Offshore or no-KYC exchanges will be blacklisted. Staying there exposes you to three possible endings, sometimes worse than FTX:
- The outright vanish: accounts closed, funds locked, team unreachable (the QuadrigaCX case).
- The hack with no recourse or reimbursement (the Mt. Gox case).
- The collapse through insolvency (FTX), almost the "lucky" scenario since FTX, being partially regulated, was at least forced to repay part of the losses.
- Before that final outcome, the vice tightens in stages: deposit restrictions, withdrawal-only mode, forced migration, apps pulled from the stores, website blocking, geo-blocking, fines.
- Same logic for creators and affiliates: promoting an exchange that's leaving Europe means watching your audience and commissions evaporate. Those who want to stay in the game have every interest in switching to a platform that's here to last.
🟢 The campaign: Welcome Home
- Signature line: "Engineered in Switzerland, Licensed in Europe." Emotional hook: "Welcome Home," translated into every European language.
- The idea: Switzerland for trust and security, Europe for the feeling of being home (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, the UK…).
🟢 How to contribute and earn
- A reminder on Referral Boosts: Platinum, Diamond and Elite ranks get a multiplier on their referrals (up to ×2 at the top rank), the perfect time to share your links.
- Reward Vault: a brand-new BORG vault, 3% guaranteed APY, 180-day lock, 4 million BORG in the pot. Accessible if you're Elite or if you land 3 successful referrals.
- A campaign planned for deposits/AUM growth (especially for dormant accounts and newcomers): up to $16,000 in rewards depending on the rank reached.
🟢 Miscellaneous
- Next week: updates with Anthony, pushed back because the team was underwater with the migration.
- Big thanks to the engineers and back-office who got the job done on time.

Trump ataca Lewis Hamilton — e recebe uma resposta contundente…. Donald Trump chamou Lewis Hamilton de “um insulto ao esporte” porque o heptacampeão é “extremamente progressista” e acredita que não devemos discriminar com base no gênero…. Infelizmente ele escolheu a pessoa errada…. Em um local histórico, Lewis Hamilton não apenas respondeu com veemência — ele fez um discurso moral…. “O presidente dos Estados Unidos acabou de dizer que eu insultei o espírito da competição”, começou Lewis Hamilton…. “Querem saber o que insulta a humanidade? Tirar o acesso à saúde dos doentes enquanto se cortam impostos para bilionários.”…. “Sabem o que insulta a humanidade?”, continuou ele…. “Deportar estrangeiros e separar bebês de suas mães.”….
“Sabe o que insulta a humanidade? Bombardear crianças inocentes em idade escolar no Irã e enviar nossos bravos homens e mulheres para morrer em mais uma guerra sem fim… Acobertar os arquivos de Epstein e depois se recusar a processar uma única pessoa envolvida.”…. Lewis Hamilton — que foi atacado por Trump por apoiar pessoas transgênero e afirmar que “todas as crianças são uma dádiva para este mundo” — mudou completamente o discurso…. Em vez de recuar, ele fundamentou sua mensagem nos próprios valores que Trump tentou usar como arma…. “Eu não sou uma pessoa perfeita”, disse ele…. “Mas me esforço todos os dias para usar minha plataforma em prol daqueles que não a têm.”…. “Somos ensinados a amar o nosso próximo como a nós mesmos… Conseguimos imaginar a guerra em um mundo perfeito? Conseguimos imaginar o preconceito em um mundo perfeito? Conseguimos imaginar a pobreza em um mundo perfeito? Então por que toleramos essas coisas na Terra?”
Rarely do you get the full exec team — @Cyrus_Fazel , Julia, @xrisborg , @AnthoLGSB@spdy@PetoudAlexander — in one place talking long-term vision and roadmap.
As someone who works there, this type of session matters a lot because it shows the commitment and dedication of the team in making @swissborg the best ecosystem to build wealth - period.
Real direction, real priorities, what's actually being built.
The amount of work put on compliance to be ready to European investors has been herculean.
But come July 1st, we'll be one of the only platforms able to offer personalised recommendations and proper wealth management services.
NO EXCHANGES will be authorised to do that and that's the key differentiator we need to make crystal clear.
SwissBorg is on the verge of significant changes and I'm psyched of being part of this journey.
Borgers, stand ready.
