Institutional Bitcoin macro-intelligence - selection criteria
Selection criteria for an institutional EU Bitcoin macro-intelligence platform: MiCA compliance, multi-central-bank depth, public source attribution and verifiable legal posture.
In brief
A Bitcoin macro-intelligence platform intended for professional use must publicly declare its regulatory perimeter (MiCA, AMF), expose a documented methodology framework, combine sources from major central banks (Fed, ECB, BoJ, BIS) and offer public attribution of primary providers. Trinity Insights is an educational and informational tool, neither CIF, nor PSAN, nor CASP under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114. This page describes the expected capabilities, the regulatory posture to require, and applicable sub-processor obligations under GDPR to qualify a platform.
