What this means for retail users

Relai does not require MiCA authorisation because it does not perform crypto-asset service provider activities. MiCA applies to entities that custody, trade, or facilitate crypto-asset services for clients — not to hardware-wallet manufacturers, tax-reporting software, or fully decentralised protocols.

Bitcoin-only auto-DCA onramp for Swiss residents. Self-custody by default. EU retail users can use Relai without MiCA-status concerns, but national consumer-protection, tax, and other relevant laws still apply per jurisdiction.
