Dutch crypto launchpad Decubate has become one of the first platforms in the EU to secure full MiCAR approval, allowing it to run legally compliant token fundraising.
Decubate, a Netherlands-based crypto launchpad platform, has secured a Markets in Crypto Assets regulation (MiCAR) license to operate a secure, compliant token fundraising business in the EU.
Decubate’s platform combines fundraising with post-launch token management tools. Its no-code Token Management System (TMS) lets projects easily deploy smart contracts, manage vesting schedules, set up staking, and handle liquidity, all while staying compliant. This helps startups cut costs, speed up launches by up to 95%, and focus on building products in high-growth sectors such as AI, real-world assets, and decentralized infrastructure.
The EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) aims to replace Europe’s patchwork of national rules with one clear framework for digital assets. This means stronger investor protections, transparent project disclosures, and consistent oversight across all 27 member states, making it easier for startups to launch legally.
For founders, this removes the costly challenge of navigating different national rules. For investors, it brings safeguards like mandatory documentation, business plan disclosures, and even a 100% refund policy.
With 35,000 verified investors and over 25 launches to date, Decubate’s early compliance could give it an edge in Europe’s new regulated crypto era, showing how startups can thrive when building within clear legal boundaries.
Founded in 2021 in Zoetermeer, the Netherlands, Decubate has steadily evolved into a premier EU-regulated Web3 launchpad and accelerator. As one of the first platforms to secure a MiCAR license from the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), the startup offers compliant token crowdfunding, market-making, incubation, and advisory services across Europe. Built from day one with regulatory clarity in mind, the platform supports IDO launches, vesting, staking, and liquidity, all within one streamlined ecosystem.
Decubate’s growth is powered by a tightly knit community and ecosystem. The platform’s native DCB token supports stakeholder engagement through utility functions like staking rewards, governance voting, and access to exclusive launchpads, supported by a smart contract-based refund policy. Strategic partnerships and crowdfunding rounds (including Mind AI, Saakuru, ZOTH, and Klink Finance) further underscore Decubate’s expanding footprint in Web3 fundraising.
