According to an official announcement, Belgian banking group KBC announced that starting from the week of February 16th, its online investment platform Bolero will support individual investors in buying and selling crypto assets on the platform, becoming the first bank in Belgium to offer such a service. The service will operate under the EU's Crypto Asset Market Regulation (MiCAR) framework, and KBC has submitted its complete Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) registration to the regulatory authorities. The announcement indicates that initially, Bolero will support Bitcoin and Ethereum trading, adopting an "execution-only, no investment advice" model. Users must complete a knowledge and experience test before trading to confirm their full understanding of the risks of crypto asset investment. Simultaneously, KBC employs a closed trading and custody model; crypto assets can only be bought and sold within Bolero and cannot be transferred to external platforms. Strict KYC and KYT processes are used to reduce the risk of fraud and money laundering. KBC stated that this move aims to respond to the market's demand for regulated crypto investment channels while ensuring compliance and security, and to provide investors with a more controllable participation method through a bank-grade custody and risk control system.
