Local context
MiCAR and Dutch supervision add a provider-level verification step. The AFM register is the practical reference for checking whether a crypto-asset service provider is permitted to offer the relevant services in the Netherlands.
The AFM maintains a register of crypto-asset service providers that hold an authorisation or notification relevant to the Netherlands. Users should verify the provider and the permitted services independently from any market view.
Use this country page as an execution filter rather than a separate market. Start with the global evidence, then check whether local currency conversion, provider access, custody, fees or regulation materially change the practical setup. If the local layer weakens the trade, the regional conclusion should be more cautious than the global chart alone.
