CNB is classified as a Tier 1 crypto regulator. Comprehensive crypto regulatory framework with licensing requirements, asset segregation, and consumer protections.
We currently list 2 crypto exchanges regulated or registered under CNB. The full list is shown above, sorted by overall rating.
CNB is based in Czech Republic and covers the European Union jurisdiction. As a Tier 1 crypto regulator, it requires exchanges to hold client assets separately, maintain capital reserves, and meet ongoing compliance obligations, comparable to MiFID II standards for traditional finance.
Visit the official CNB website and use their public register or licence verification tool. Enter the exchange's registered name to confirm its current status. This is the most reliable way to verify regulatory standing.
CNB regulation primarily addresses licensing, AML/KYC compliance, and operational standards. Compensation for hacks depends on the exchange's own insurance fund or Proof of Reserves commitments, not typically a government-backed compensation scheme. Always choose exchanges with published cold storage ratios and Proof of Reserves attestations.
