Taurus MiFID II License Powers Tokenized Asset Expansion Across Europe

Taurus has secured a MiFID II license from Cyprus’s CySEC, enabling it to operate as a regulated investment firm across the European Economic Area and offer tokenized financial instruments (bonds, fund shares, equities, structured products) with secondary trading. The authorization gives Taurus passporting rights across ~30 EEA countries, lowering regulatory barriers for banks and asset managers to issue and trade tokenized products, improve settlement speeds, and increase liquidity. The license strengthens institutional trust through AML/KYC and reporting requirements, positioning Taurus as an infrastructure provider amid growing tokenization demand (industry estimates suggest a >$10 trillion market by 2030). Market implications include faster institutional adoption, greater competition in tokenization solutions, and improved on‑chain liquidity—though regulatory fragmentation and market volatility remain risks.
