Tier classification follows the same scale as the retail register: tier-2 means real supervision and client-money segregation, without an investor compensation scheme — never misread it as tier-1 protection.

The claims ledger

Claims specific enough to be falsified — and the ones that remain the venue's own measurement.

Testable claims

  • B2C2 OTC Ltd is authorised and regulated by the FCA in the UK (reference number 810834) in relation to the regulated activities it performs, while its cryptoasset services are not currently regulated by the FCA and clients will not benefit from compensation/ombudsman schemes (b2c2.com/disclaimer)
  • B2C2 Europe S.à r.l. obtained MiCA authorisation from Luxembourg's CSSF as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider on 13 May 2026, announced 15 May 2026, enabling OTC spot crypto services across the EU/EEA via passporting; the firm had been registered as a VASP in Luxembourg from 2024 (own press release)
  • B2C2 Europe S.à r.l. is registered with the CSSF as a Virtual Asset Service Provider, RCS number B265273, 1 rue Jean Piret, L-2350 Luxembourg (b2c2.com/disclaimer)
  • Institutional solutions page lists 24/7/365 support for asset managers, funds, banks, brokers, exchanges, DATs, fintechs and crypto projects (b2c2.com)

Claims we cannot verify from outside

  • 'Global leader in institutional digital asset liquidity' positioning (self-description)
  • 'Battle-tested technology' / 'crypto-native expertise' marketing language
  • 'First Global OTC Liquidity Provider to secure a CASP licence' superlative (self-claimed, cannot be independently verified without a CSSF register check)

Explicitly refused
A firm that publishes its own negative space — who it refuses, where it is not licensed — is materially easier to diligence than one that doesn't. The refusal list is treated here as disclosure, not as a defect.
