For HTX users in the EU
Blocked all EU member states · June 2026HTX has blocked EU member states. Your crypto journey doesn’t have to stop.
HTX’s own Platform User Agreement now lists every EU member state among the jurisdictions barred from using its services, updated around the 1 July 2026 MiCA deadline. If you still want a simple way to buy, hold and understand crypto, CryptoUnity can be your next step.

What’s happening with HTX in the EU
HTX does not hold a MiCA (CASP) licence. Its own Platform User Agreement was updated in June 2026 to add every EU member state to the list of jurisdictions prohibited from using any of its services — a change that lines up with the MiCA transition deadline of 1 July 2026.
- The MiCA transitional period ended 1 July 2026, with no extension.
- HTX’s own user agreement (last updated 18 June 2026) lists all EU member states as a prohibited jurisdiction for all services.
- HTX has not published a dedicated wind-down notice with specific fund-access dates at the time of writing — if you still hold a balance, check the app directly and treat withdrawing as a safe first step.
- HTX has not published a MiCA (CASP) application, and does not appear in ESMA’s register of authorised providers.
- Crypto itself stays fully legal in the EU — this is one company’s decision, not a market-wide problem.

Two ways to bring your crypto over
Move your coins straight across, or take euros out and start fresh. Both are simple, so pick what suits you.
Pick the right network. This matters most.
If you move crypto on-chain rather than withdrawing to euros, the network you pick must match your CryptoUnity deposit address exactly. Always send a small test amount first — sending on the wrong network can mean your funds are lost for good.

Done, nothing to pay us
It lands in your CryptoUnity wallet. We don’t charge to receive it; only the network’s fee applies.
Moving crypto isn’t a sale, so you generally don’t realise a taxable gain the way selling to euros can. Still, check your local tax rules.
