YESSS - we did it 🇪🇺
Validvent is officially a MiCAR CASP 🚀🚀🚀
And yes - this one is personal.
Robby Schwertner [CryptoRobby]🦋 and I started back in 2018 - no licenses, no big structure, just curiosity and conviction.
Researching, teaching, speaking about blockchain when most people still thought it was a niche topic.
Advising on crypto tax, classifying millions of transactions, representing crypto matters in court, leading defense audits, executing OTC deals, curating digital art exhibitions, transforming museums into hubs of innovation and building trust step by step.
Hosting meetups, supporting projects, taking advisory and board roles along the way.
No financing round. We followed the market - through the ups and downs. Kept building.
Today we are:
👉 a European independent Crypto Asset Advisory firm
Not a platform.
Not an exchange.
Not here to shill anyone‘s tokens.
We believe in self-hosted investing.
We believe that everybody should have FULL control over their assets.
We believe in financial sovereignty. Resilience. Freedom. 🕊️
MiCAR is a milestone - not the finish line. A big step for the industry and a major boost for the ecosystem.
But what matters more:
We stayed true to the original idea of Bitcoin.
No intermediaries.
No custody lock-ins.
Just independent advice.
Big thanks to everyone who was part of this journey - the team, our partners and families, clients and everyone who supported us along the way 🙏
The future is decentralized 🧢
We just got the MiCAR CASP license 🇪🇺
Europe’s first independent Crypto Asset Advisory firm, not a platform. Self-hosted investing. No intermediaries. The future is decentralized.🚀

Copy trading gets interesting when you ask one question:
If I put my phone down for a week, what happens to my wallet?
In the model we’re exploring at Validvent, the answer is: nothing. Every proposed trade needs your individual approval.

An “approve all future trades” button would change that arrangement.
It removes the individual decision we built the model around. That would need a fresh regulatory assessment, even if the product team sees it as a small UX improvement.

That’s the direction we’re exploring: personalised crypto advice with self-custody and a real decision on every trade.
If you’re building something similar, I’d like to compare notes.

DAC8 & CARF gonna be the biggest crypto data honey pot of all time
It's high time to move self-hosted and get your privacy concerns set!
Crypto tax is moving beyond exchange reporting.
With an estimated $457B in potentially taxable on-chain activity in 2025, CARF and DAC8 are important steps, but they capture not everything.
The challenge: track activity across exchanges, wallets, DeFi, payments & jurisdictions.

Congrats on the hard work & persistence
After a year of intense daily bipartisan negotiations, this bill is ready. Here is the final text. President Trump voluntarily agreed to new ethics provisions holding every federally elected official, judge, and their spouses to some of the toughest ethics restrictions in U.S. history. This new text includes more than 120 of Democrats' demands. A no vote on Tuesday means opposing real ethics reforms on politicians' personal investments, handing American leadership in digital assets to our foreign competitors, and leaving Americans with zero protections in the digital asset markets. Democrats got what they wanted; now they need to take yes for an answer. Here's the latest: lummis.senate.gov/press-rele…

Tomorrow they target your tax office
‼️ BREAKING: The threat actors who targeted Revolut with information-demand emails are now posting sensitive customer data, including that of high-profile clients such as tennis player Shevchenko and Römer, CEO of Gamdom/Skinscom.
They want Revolut to pay up. They say they'll release more messages, data and insights into how the Revolut team operates.
They're accusing Revolut of handing over sensitive information to countries outside its jurisdiction.
They accuse the company of negligence around privacy and the exposure of sensitive information.

This is a serious joke 🤓
many crypto influencers are about to face some serious problems.
i’ve been working undercover for the IRS for the past few years, tracking twitter personalities and their onchain activity.
thanks to social apps like fomo and pumpfun, a lot of the missing pieces have finally fallen into place, allowing us to connect a lot of dots.
the top 100 PnL leaderboard alone has already led to 23 tax evasion investigations over the past few weeks.
thank you for your attention to this matter.
