A personal Account Manager, all to yourself: the new benefit of the Gold and Platinum Clubs
There comes a moment, for anyone operating in crypto, when the FAQs are no longer enough. You have an important transfer to make and want to be sure of every step. You want to understand how a service works before activating it. You have a specific operational question and would simply like to talk it through with a person — the same person, every time, who knows you and your history on the platform.
From today, that person exists: they are called your personal Account Manager, and they are the new benefit reserved for members of the Gold and Platinum Clubs.
A person, not a ticket
Your Account Manager is your dedicated point of reference within Young Platform. Not a different operator with every request, not a support queue: a professional with a name and a surname, who gets to know the way you use the platform and follows you over time.
Here is what they can do for you:
Priority, dedicated assistance: your requests travel in a fast lane, with response times reserved for Gold and Platinum members.
Step-by-step operational support: deposits and withdrawals of significant amounts, transfers from other platforms or wallets, checking the correct networks, OTC transactions — your Account Manager accompanies you through every stage, so that everything is carried out safely.
Guidance across products and services: from the Tax Report to the Account and Young Card, from live promos to what’s coming next, they explain how each service works, what it includes and how to activate it.
What it is not (and it’s right that you know)
Transparency first: your Account Manager does not provide investment advice, nor tax or legal advice. They will not tell you which crypto-assets to buy or sell, will not make personalised recommendations and will not assess your portfolio: every investment decision remains exclusively yours. Their role is to make your life simpler on the operational and informational side.
Book your video call directly from the app
The beauty of this benefit is also how simple it is to use. No emails, no waiting: the video call with your Account Manager can be booked in a few taps, directly from the app.
Open the Young Platform app and go to Profile.
Enter the Club section.
Tap the Account Manager benefit and choose a date and time from the available slots: your video call is booked.
You can book whenever you like, reschedule if something comes up and find every appointment in your calendar. Your Account Manager joins the call already briefed on your request.
Note –This benefit has been added in the latest Young Platform app update: download it now so you don’t miss out on what’s new!
Who it is reserved for
The personal Account Manager benefit is included in the Gold and Platinum Clubs, at no additional cost beyond your Club level. If you are currently Silver or have not yet joined a Club, you can find the requirements, benefits and conditions of each level on the dedicated Club page and in the related Terms and Conditions.
This is a marketing communication within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA). The “personal Account Manager” benefit is a dedicated assistance service reserved for members of Young Platform’s Gold and Platinum Clubs, subject to the Club Terms and Conditions available at youngplatform.com/legal. The Account Manager provides exclusively operational and informational support on Young Platform’s products and services and does not provide investment, tax or legal advice, nor personalised recommendations on crypto-assets; every investment decision is taken independently by the user. Crypto-assets are highly volatile and carry a significant risk of loss, including the total loss of the capital invested; they are not covered by bank deposit guarantee schemes (Directive 2014/49/EU) or investor compensation schemes (Directive 97/9/EC). Young Platform reserves the right to modify Club benefits for the future, as provided for in the related Terms and Conditions. Crypto-asset services are provided by Young Platform S.p.A., Via F. Cigna 96/17, 10155 Turin, Italy — VAT no. 11931440017 — authorised by Consob and the Bank of Italy to operate as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA).

The second quarter 2026 report on the YNG token. What happened, and what changes with the MiCAR licence?
What happened in the second quarter of 2026? How did the YNG token move in a period that was anything but easy for the market? How many tokens were issued, repurchased and distributed, and what changed with the MiCAR authorisation?
Young Platform’s second quarter of 2026
One date marks this quarter more than any other: 30 June. On that day Consob and Banca d’Italia authorised us to operate as a CASP, that is, as a crypto-asset service provider under the European MiCAR regulation. It arrived on the very last day available, when the transitional regime that had accompanied the sector until then expired. From that point on, in the European Union, only those who are fully compliant can operate.
And there is a change that concerns this very report. For several quarters, part of its content was reserved for Club members: a little extra depth for those closest to the project. From today that is no longer the case, and the reason is, once again, MiCAR: information that can affect the YNG token must be accessible to everyone at the same time and on the same conditions, with no privileged channels. So the report goes back to being what it once was, public and open to anyone, from the first figure to the last.
The market context we moved in, however, was anything but favourable. After a recovering April, the market slowed in May and fell back decisively in June, closing the quarter clearly down. Against this backdrop the YNG token showed, over the period, lower volatility than the sector’s leading assets: in the toughest month, June, it limited its losses to a fraction of those recorded by Bitcoin and Ethereum. This figure refers to a single quarter and to a limited number of comparison assets: it does not imply that YNG is, in general, a less risky investment, nor does it constitute a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the token.
The authorisation, though, is not a finish line: it is the ground our work will stand on from here on. And the weeks immediately after the close of the quarter have already shown it: we launched a campaign dedicated to those who bring their assets onto the platform, we introduced YNG Boost, our vesting service that rewards with additional tokens anyone who buys YNG and locks them on the platform for a period of their choosing, another route, alongside the Clubs, to give the token a concrete role, and, above all, we are bringing the YNG token onto a new international trading venue.
What will you find in this report? The lead role, as the title says, goes to the Young (YNG) token: how the price moved, how many tokens were issued and repurchased, how the circulating supply was distributed. But also everything that, around the token, accompanied its quarter: from the card cashback to the buyback programme, from the Clubs to the developments of the past few weeks. The complete data, with all the on-chain addresses and regulatory references, remain in the official informational communication, which we are publishing alongside this report.
Welcome to the Young (YNG) token report for the second quarter of 2026. Enjoy the read!
The MiCAR licence, and what really changes
Let’s start here, because it is the chapter that weighs most of all. The authorisation covers 8 of the 10 services set out in the regulation: from the exchange of crypto-assets to custody, from advice to portfolio management. In practice, almost everything we offer every day in the app is governed by a European regulatory framework.
What does it mean, in practice, for those who use Young Platform? The truth is that, in everyday use, little or nothing changes: the app is the same as ever. What changes is the picture around it, both for the market and, potentially, for the path ahead of us. The most immediate consequence is this: with the expiry of the transitional regime, operators without authorisation had to leave the European market. Those who remain are the ones that completed the process required by the authorities, a detail that is anything but secondary, in a sector where for years the word “rules” was more the exception than the norm.
Then there is an effect set to count above all in the months to come: thanks to the European passport, the licence obtained in Italy allows Young Platform to operate across the entire Union: no new authorisation is needed in each member state, only a notification to the competent Authority of the host country. To date the notification relating to France has been completed.
The price of YNG and the state of the market
Let’s get to the price, usually the first item you go looking for. Over the quarter, the YNG token went from €0.4428 on 31 March to €0.574 on 30 June: +29.6%.
A number on its own, though, tells only half the story. The context in which that number matured was anything but simple. After a recovering April, with the total crypto market capitalisation up around 13%, May slowed and June braked hard: around -20% in a single month, down to about $2.02 trillion, the lowest level in almost two years. Bitcoin closed June at -21.6%, Ethereum at -23.9%.
In that difficult month YNG moved between €0.529 and €0.572, closing at -8.4%. A decline, certainly, but a more contained one than that recorded by the sector’s big names over the same period.
Account and card: the effect on the token
The Young payment account and debit card are not new to this quarter, we covered them at length at their debut. They had been introduced earlier, with a gradual rollout initially reserved for Club members; it was on 20 April that access opened to the entire user base. They come back into the report because it is in these months that they began to leave their mark on the token.
The first channel is cashback: every purchase with the card gives part of it back in YNG tokens, with a percentage that rises with the Club level, from 0.1% for Essential up to 3.60% for Platinum. The more the cards are used, the more YNG enter users’ wallets. This does not mean, however, that the tokens in circulation have exploded: as we will see further on, issuance has stayed under control. It is a principle we have always cared about, ever since we revised the way YNG is issued with the 2023 Step update.
The second channel is less visible, but for the token it counts a great deal. On every transaction with the card there is a small 0.15% fee that flows directly into the buyback programme: every payment with the Young card becomes, in a fraction of itself, fuel for repurchasing YNG on the market. It is the fourth source feeding the programme, alongside staking fees, those from the decentralised pools and those from Young Platform Step.
Buyback and liquidity additions
And since we have just mentioned it: what exactly is the buyback? We have talked about it in several reports, but it is worth restating; not least because, as we were saying a moment ago, the card has just become a new source feeding it.
It is the mechanism by which part of the ecosystem’s revenues comes back to the token. It works in monthly cycles, and it is easier to understand with an example.
Imagine that, in a given month, the ecosystem generates a certain sum earmarked for the programme. The following month those funds are put to work in two moves, in this order.
First, the liquidity of the YNG/USDC pool on Uniswap is strengthened: more liquidity means smoother trading and prices less prone to sharp swings.
Then, if anything is left over after that operation, the remainder is used to buy back YNG directly on the market.
And the repurchased tokens? They don’t disappear: they stay in the treasury and the following month become the first brick of the new liquidity injection. A cycle that feeds itself, month after month.
Two things we make a point of repeating in every report, because they head off misunderstandings. The first: the repurchased tokens are not burned, but stay in the treasury. The second: the buyback is not an operation to support the price. It promises no levels, it is not a commitment to intervene in the future. It is, much more simply, a transparent way to recirculate revenues within the ecosystem. The programme is run at Young Platform’s discretion and may be amended or discontinued at any time.
Here is what was actually done during the quarter:
April 2026 (€2,591): repurchase of YNG on the market and rebalancing of the pool.
May 2026 (€2,802): to which are added 695 USDC and 773 YNG of fees accrued from the pools, reinvested in the YNG/USDC pool.
June 2026 (€4,368): the month’s revenues were used entirely to buy USDC, funding the liquidity addition of the 10,188 YNG left in the treasury from previous months.
The Club numbers
YNG is Young Platform’s utility token and gives access to the Clubs: the subscription plans that offer benefits on our crypto services and on a selection of brands designed for everyday life. As at the 22 July measurement there are 2,440 Club members, broken down as follows (in brackets, the change from the previous report):
Bronze: 997 (-2.9%).
Essential: 801 (+9.4%).
Silver: 254 (-4.5%).
Gold: 202 (+11.0%).
Platinum: 186 (-1.1%).
Overall the number of members grew by 1.9%. The drivers are the Gold (+11%) and Essential (+9.4%) levels, while the others remain substantially stable.
The number of members is not an incidental figure: it is directly linked to the distribution of the token. The more people join a Club, the greater the quantity of YNG voluntarily locked on the platform, and therefore the smaller the circulating availability.
Distribution of the YNG token
At the end of March the circulating supply was around 27.66 million YNG; at the end of June, with the quarter’s issuance, it rises to around 27.73 million. A net increase of just over 67,000tokens, equal to around 0.24%: issuance remains contained, as the model provides for.
These new tokens were distributed through several mechanisms:
30,153 YNG through Step;
33,839 YNG through the card cashback;
3,290 YNG through staking.
That cashback is already the largest item, just two months after the card opened to all users, shows how quickly this channel is taking hold. The maximum quantity of YNG nevertheless remains fixed at 100 million, with no mechanism that generates new ones beyond that threshold or destroys them.
On the liquidity front, YNG can be traded on two decentralised pools on Uniswap. At the close of the quarter they contained:
YNG/USDC pool: around 1,376,889 YNG and 897,951 USDC;
YNG/WETH pool: around 345,096 YNG and 117.4 WETH.
Compared with the end of March, the YNG share fell in both pools, while that of the paired asset (USDC and ETH) grew: the effect of the buyback programme’s rebalancing interventions, which strengthen market depth.
The quarter’s activities
The quarter closed on 30 June, but the pace did not slow: several initiatives started right at the turn between the end of the period and the weeks that followed. We gather them here.
The launch of YNG Boost
With YNG Boost (the Vesting Service) we have opened a new route for those who want to back the token over time. How it works is straightforward: you buy YNG at market price, you agree to lock them on the platform for a period of your choosing (12, 24 or 36 months) and, in exchange, you receive an additional quantity of tokens. It is not a yield or an interest payment: it is a quantity of YNG that we disburse from our treasury, in our capacity as issuer, to support those who choose to stay and look to the long term.
The Boost grows with the amount and the length of the lock-up, and for Club members (Silver, Gold, Platinum) an uplift applies: it goes up to 34.5% in additional tokens.
Two clarifications we want to make: the Boost applies only to new purchases, selling and rebuying the YNG you already hold does not entitle you to the bonus, a rule designed precisely to protect the token’s market; and the percentages indicate quantities of tokens, not a yield: their value in euros can vary over time with market volatility. All the details are in the dedicated article as well as in the Pre-contractual Information for the Vesting Service.
Deposit campaign (MYCA) and the BNB listing
From 1 July to 2 August, Move Your Crypto Assets (MYCA) is running, the promo designed for those who want to move their crypto to Young Platform. It comes straight out of the MiCAR licence: now that the sector has clear rules and boundaries, bringing your funds back to an Italian platform, headquartered in Turin and fully regulated, is a choice in favour of transparency.
The mechanism is simple: a deposit of at least €1,000 is enough (in crypto, in euros or in a combination of the two) and the more you deposit, the higher the level you reach. The promo is split into three Tiers (from €1,000, from €10,000, from €50,000 upwards) and unlocks benefits on five fronts: a Bonus Wallet, the free Tax Report, an enhanced YNG cashback of up to 3.6%, dedicated conditions on the card and the account and, for the highest amounts, a personal Account Manager.
All the conditions are set out in the rules published on the website. Along the same lines, another development: since 16 July we have added BNB to the crypto available in the app. It is one of the most traded assets in the world, and the decision to list it now answers a precise need: to offer those who hold it a regulated and compliant place, in Italy, where they can carry on operating while the European regulatory framework redraws where and how certain assets can be offered.
The WhiteBIT listing
From 28 July, YNG will also be tradable on WhiteBIT, on the YNG/USDC pair. It is the token’s first listing on a third-party centralised exchange: until today YNG was accessible only on Young Platform and, since July 2025, on the decentralised protocol Uniswap as well. And WhiteBIT is not just any venue: it is a European platform that states it operates with a MiCAR licence in Austria and VASP authorisations in ten EU countries, over 8 million registered users and a daily trading volume of between $1 and $2.5 billion, the leading European exchange by web traffic, with around 32 million visits a month.
For the token, entering a venue of this size means three concrete things: more geographic visibility (WhiteBIT has strong roots in Eastern Europe, an area where Young Platform is still little present), an international proving ground in front of a community with different habits from ours, and one more point of access, alongside Young Platform and Uniswap.
The listing fits into a year that has changed the scale we operate on, the MiCAR licence and the €22.5 million capital increase led by Gruppo Azimut, and it will not be the last stop: the search for new trading venues for YNG will continue through 2026. One clarification, as always: a listing is a matter of infrastructure, not a promise about the price, and it affects neither the tokenomics nor the holders’ rights defined by the White Paper. We covered it all in detail in a dedicated article.
The DeFi Wallet
Among the developments we are working on, the DeFi Wallet is the one we look forward to most, because it changes what can be done on Young Platform. Until today, to put your crypto to work in decentralised finance you had to leave the app: open an external wallet, learn to manage it, move between several different tools and hope not to get a step wrong. With the DeFi Wallet all of this happens in a single place (inside the app you already use) and in a couple of taps.
It is a wallet whose control is entirely yours: the keys stay with you, we provide the interface to use them without complications. From there you will be able to put your crypto-assets to work on the sector’s most established lending protocols, on which much of DeFi is based, without having to become an expert in anything. And we are not flinging open a door onto the whole blockchain: access is limited to a selection of protocols we have vetted and judged solid. It is our way of bringing you the freedom of decentralised finance without the wild west that too often comes with it.
It will arrive the way all our things arrive: a bit at a time, first to groups of users and then to everyone. We are not giving a precise date (for the reason we explain below), but there is one thing we will say straight away, because it is right to know it: since it is a wallet you manage on your own, the DeFi Wallet falls outside the MiCAR scope and the regulation’s protections do not apply to what you do with your keys.
Conclusions
Those who have followed us for a while were used to a section on “what’s next” at the end of the report: a taste of what was cooking. From this quarter that section is gone, and it is worth explaining why.
With the MiCA authorisation, the YNG token and its issuer are subject to the regulation’s market abuse rules, including those relating to inside information. Information is “inside information” when it is precise, not yet public and, if disclosed, would be likely to have a significant effect on the price of the token. Previewing developments of this kind would mean giving readers an informational advantage over the market: exactly what these rules exist to prevent.
That is why the flow has changed. When information that can affect the price of YNG becomes communicable, the first step is no longer a post or a teaser: it is publication in the dedicated section of the website, where we collect the informational communications and, where the relevant conditions are met, the inside information relating to the token. That way everyone reads it at the same time, on the same terms. Our team, for its part, operates under the supervision of the authorities and with internal controls designed precisely to prevent anyone holding such information from taking advantage of it.
The upshot is that previews, as you knew them, will no longer be there. We realise it takes some of the flavour out of the wait. But it is, first of all, a protection for you: the guarantee that nobody, ourselves included, plays with information the market does not have yet.
This article is an overview, designed to give you the picture without drowning you in figures. If instead you want the complete data, with all the on-chain addresses and regulatory references, you will find them in the official informational communication, which we are publishing alongside this report.
This content is a marketing communication. The YNG token prices reported in this article are expressed in euros, the currency of the YNG/EUR market on Young Platform, where most trading is concentrated. Market data relating to Bitcoin, Ethereum and the overall capitalisation of the sector are expressed in dollars, in line with the convention of market sources. On-chain data is publicly verifiable via block explorer.
Past performance does not constitute a guarantee of future results, nor financial advice. The buyback programme is run at the discretion of Young Platform S.p.A., does not constitute a price support operation and does not guarantee any return. Access to decentralised protocols through the DeFi Wallet is a service outside the MiCAR scope and does not benefit from the protections provided for by Regulation (EU) 2023/1114. A White Paper compliant with Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 has been published for the YNG token, available on youngplatform.com: in the event of any discrepancy between this article and the White Paper, the White Paper prevails.
From July 28, YNG will also be tradable on WhiteBIT. A step that fits into a year of expansion for Young Platform: the MiCAR licence, the capital increase, and now a new international listing.
From July 28, 2026, the YNG token will also be tradable on WhiteBIT, a European centralised platform with a MiCA licence in Austria and VASP authorisations in ten EU countries. This is the first listing of YNG on a third-party centralised platform: until now, the YNG token was only accessible on Young Platform and, since July 2025, also through the decentralised protocol Uniswap.
What are the implications, and why now? To understand that, it helps to look at the year Young Platform has just been through.
A year of foundations
In 2026, Young Platform went through two milestones that changed the scale at which the company operates. The first is the MiCA licence: granted by Consob and the Bank of Italy, which authorised Young Platform as a CASP (Crypto-Asset Service Provider) for eight of the ten services provided for under the European regulation.
An authorisation that, thanks to the European passporting regime, is valid not only in Italy but, potentially, across the entire Union; the licence has now officially been passported to France as well.
The second is Young Group’s €22.5 million capital increase, led by the Azimut Group. Fresh resources to accelerate the build-out of a financial infrastructure that integrates crypto, digital banking and tokenised assets.
Taken together, the licence and the capital are the two conditions that make an expansion beyond Italy’s borders possible. And within that expansion, the YNG token, which sits at the centre of the Young Platform ecosystem, is one of the tools through which this path takes shape: the more accessible the token is across markets and platforms, the wider the audience that can come into contact with the ecosystem it represents. The listing on WhiteBIT is the first concrete step in this path.
Why WhiteBIT
WhiteBIT is a European exchange with a MiCA licence in Austria and VASP authorisations in ten EU countries, with over eight million registered users and a daily trading volume of between $1 and $2.5 billion, depending on the source. It is also the leading European exchange by web traffic, with around 32 million monthly visits.
For YNG, joining a venue of this size means three concrete things:
Greater geographic visibility: WhiteBIT was founded in Ukraine and has built a strong historical presence in Eastern Europe over time, a region where Young Platform is practically unknown. It’s an entry into a context the ecosystem currently has little presence in.
An international proving ground: the token is put to the test by a community with different habits and reference points from Young Platform’s historical one — a first concrete test of interest beyond its established audience.
More trading venues: YNG adds to the platforms already active — Young Platform and Uniswap — expanding the access points for anyone who wants to trade the token, regardless of channel or reference market.
A move that also reflects a broader choice of collaboration between platforms. “WhiteBIT is a natural partner in this phase of expansion, one that will let us bring YNG in front of an international audience“, commented Alexandru Stefan Gheban, CEO of Young Platform.
What doesn’t change
The listing has no bearing on the token’s tokenomics (maximum supply, circulating supply, issuance mechanics), holders’ rights as defined in the White Paper, YNG’s smart contract, or the terms of use on Young Platform and Uniswap.
And it is in no way a promise about price: an admission to trading is an infrastructure step, not an event that guarantees any market direction. We say this because we are the issuer, and a fact like this should always be put in its proper context.
This isn’t the last step
The WhiteBIT listing is part of a broader expansion of YNG’s trading venues that will continue through 2026. Young Platform continues to evaluate new trading venues for YNG. Any new announcements will be communicated to the public through an inside information disclosure pursuant to Art. 88 MiCAR, in line with the timing and requirements set out by the regulation.
On July 16 we launched YNG Boost (Vesting Service). What is it? Quite simply: by purchasing and locking Young (YNG) on the platform for 12, 24 or 36 months, you’ll receive an extra amount of YNG tokens (the Boost) added on top of what you’ve already purchased.
The best part? The more YNG you buy and the longer you lock it, the bigger the Boost — up to a maximum of 30%of the purchased amount! And that’s not all: there’s an additional Boost for members of our Clubs (Silver and above), up to 34.5% for Platinum Club members.
One important thing to keep in mind: selling and repurchasing YNG tokens you already hold excludes you from YNG Boost. As always, we recommend reading this article, which briefly explains how YNG Boost works: YNG Boost is here: buy Young (YNG), lock it, and get extra YNG tokens.

BNB is now on Young Platform: what it is, how it works and how to transfer your BNB to a MiCA-authorised European exchange.
Today’s listing is a big one: BNB officially joins the Young Platform catalogue. From today you can buy it, sell it, hold it in custody and — above all — deposit it directly from your wallets or from other platforms, without having to convert it into anything else.
What BNB is and what it is for
BNB is the native crypto-asset of BNB Chain, one of the most widely used blockchain ecosystems in the world. It was born in 2017 as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum before migrating to its own proprietary blockchain.
Today it is the native token of the BNB Smart Chain, a network compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) — meaning it can run smart contracts and decentralised applications written to the same standards as Ethereum — based on a Proof of Staked Authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism, in which a limited number of validators, selected according to the tokens they have staked, produce the blocks, with fast confirmation times and low fees.
Within its ecosystem, BNB has clearly defined uses:
Network fees (gas): every transaction and every interaction with smart contracts on the BNB Smart Chain is paid for in BNB, just like ETH on Ethereum.
Staking and network security: holders can delegate their BNB to validators, taking part in the mechanism that keeps the network running.
Governance: those who stake BNB can vote on proposals to evolve the protocol.
BEP-20 token standard: BNB is the reference token for an ecosystem that hosts thousands of BEP-20 tokens, DeFi applications, the opBNB layer-2 solution, and the BNB Greenfield decentralised storage network.
A distinctive technical feature is the quarterly auto-burn mechanism: a portion of the BNB supply is periodically removed from circulation in a programmed, on-chain verifiable way, according to a public formula, with the protocol’s stated aim of reducing the overall supply over time. This is a structural feature of the token, not a guarantee of its value: the price of BNB remains determined by the market.
What changes from today: your BNB, wherever you want it
Until yesterday, anyone holding BNB who wanted to operate on the Young Platform had to sell or convert it elsewhere first. Not any more: from today, you can transfer your BNB as is, directly to your Young Platform account. Your BNB stays BNB — all that changes is where it is held.
And where it is held matters. Young Platform is a CASP authorised by Consob and the Bank of Italy under the European MiCA Regulation, with its registered office in Turin: a real address, in Italy, with European rules, transparency obligations towards clients and a supervisory authority to answer to. If part of your portfolio currently sits on platforms outside the European regulated perimeter, the BNB listing makes the transfer a simple operation: no sale, no conversion, no intermediate steps.
The right moment: the MYCA deposit promo runs until 2 August
There is one more reason to do it now. Until 2 August, the MYCA (Move Your Crypto Assets) promo is live, dedicated to anyone transferring funds to Young Platform: deposits in crypto — BNB included — and in euro count together towards the thresholds, starting from an overall value of €1,000.
The promo is structured in three Tiers (€1,000–9,999, €10,000–49,999, €50,000 and above), recalculated every week on the basis of net deposits, and unlocks growing benefits:
Bonus Wallet: a discount on trading fees, proportional to the amount deposited and usable until 31 December 2026;
Tax Report with a personalised discount of up to 70% off the list price;
Cashback in YNG tokens on everyday spending with the Young Card;
Payment account with a €0 fee for one year and a free Young Card;
Dedicated Account Manager for those in Tiers 2 and 3.
The full conditions, requirements and exclusions are set out in the MYCA promo Rules.
How to transfer your BNB to Young Platform
Log in to your Young Platform account (a completed KYC is required) and open the Deposit → BNB section.
Copy the deposit address and check the indicated network carefully: a transfer on an unsupported network may result in the loss of your funds.
Execute the transfer from the platform or wallet of origin. Upon on-chain confirmation, your BNB will be available in your Young Platform portfolio — and its value will count towards the calculation of your MYCA Tier.
For significant amounts, our support team can assist you step by step with the transfer.
Like every crypto-asset, BNB is subject to high volatility: its value can fall rapidly and significantly, potentially resulting in a total loss of the capital invested. BNB is not issued by Young Platform and its characteristics depend on a third-party protocol over which Young Platform exercises no control. Crypto-assets are not covered by bank deposit guarantee schemes or investor compensation schemes. Before operating, please read the General Risk Disclosure.

With YNG Boost you buy Young (YNG), lock it for a period of your choice, and receive extra tokens up to 30%. The benefit increases further if you’re a Club member. Here’s how it works.
YNG Boost has arrived: the new Vesting Service for the YNG Token.
It works in a very simple way: you buy Young (YNG) at market price and agree to lock it on the platform for a period of your choice — 12, 24 or 36 months. In exchange, you receive an additional amount of YNG tokens, which is added to the amount purchased.
This is not a yield or interest: it is an amount of tokens distributed by Young Platform, as issuer, from its own treasury to support those who choose to stay and bet on the long term.
WARNING! Selling and repurchasing YNG tokens you already hold excludes you from YNG Boost. The Vesting Service applies only to new purchases. This is a simple rule with a precise purpose: to protect the token market, avoiding operations carried out solely to obtain the Boost — such as selling and repurchasing the same YNG — which could artificially alter its price and volumes. In addition, locked tokens cannot be used to access the Clubs.
How much extra YNG you receive
Your Boost depends on three variables that add up together: the amount of tokens purchased, the lock-up duration, and any Club membership.
Extra YNG share based on amount
Extra YNG share based on lock-up duration
You can choose to lock the Young (YNG) tokens purchased for 12, 24 or 36 months. The longer the lock-up period, the higher the boost percentage.
The two shares add together: combining the highest amount with the longest duration, the maximum boost reaches 30%.
In addition, the sum of the two YNG shares (by amount and duration) becomes the calculation base for further extra YNG based on the Club.
Club Premium YNG
If you have an active Silver, Gold or Platinum Club at the time of purchase, you receive a “Club Premium” calculated on the extra YNG for amount and duration (not on the capital):
This means that for a Platinum member — with a purchase of ≥ €250,000 and a 36-month lock-up — the total boost reaches up to 34.5%.
Keep in mind that, at the time of purchase, the Club level you belong to is taken as reference: if you change level afterwards, the bonus already assigned does not change.
Also, remember that the percentages indicate quantities of tokens, not percentages of return. The euro value of the purchased and additional YNG tokens can vary significantly over time, depending on market volatility.
Practical example
You buy €20,000 of YNG.
You choose a 24-month lock-up and are a Gold Club member.
The price of YNG is €0.50.
Here’s what you get:
YNG purchased: 40,000.
YNG by amount (+4%) = 1,600 YNG.
YNG by duration (+8%) = 3,200 YNG.
Total boost = 4,800 YNG
with Gold you add 10% = (10% x 4,800 YNG) → another 480 YNG.
The total? 5,280 extra YNG, in addition to the 40,000 already purchased.
YNG Boost: how it works in practice
You sign the contract for the Vesting Service
You buy YNG at market price on the platform.
We credit you with the additional YNG tokens.
Both the purchased and additional YNG are placed in vesting.
The purchased and additional YNG remain locked for the first 2 months (the so-called cliff): a technical period needed to complete the allocation.
From there on, month after month, a share unlocks automatically for the entire chosen duration, slower at the start, faster towards the end (exponential vesting).
You’ll find the list of tranches in the “Locked YNG” section of your Young (YNG) Wallet, tagged respectively as “VESTING – PURCHASED YNG” and “VESTING – ADDITIONAL YNG”.
When a tranche unlocks, you need to go into this section and click “Claim” to move the YNG to your main wallet and use it as you prefer.
Who can join
You need to complete KYC on the Young Platform and have residency in an EU member state (or an approved jurisdiction). Minimum amount: €5,000 per transaction. Valid only for new purchases: YNG tokens you already hold cannot enter the program.
How to join
The YNG Boost isn’t a button to press: before purchasing, you need to sign a dedicated contract. Just write to us at [email protected]: we’ll guide you from there, step by step. If you want to get an idea before writing to us, you can read the pre-contractual disclosure below.
Young (YNG) is the utility token issued by Young Platform, one of the few Italian platforms for the exchange of crypto-assets to have obtained MiCAR authorization and which has just closed a €22.5 million capital increase with Azimut as lead investor.
Today YNG is still, for the most part, a domestic market, with a predominantly Italian holder base; but its accessibility is progressively expanding beyond borders.
The token is already listed on Uniswap, the decentralized exchange where anyone, in any country, can trade it without intermediaries, while MiCAR authorization, with the European passport already active on the French market, opens the way to a wider user base across Europe. What today is mainly an Italian phenomenon could therefore move, in the coming years, towards an international market.
Risks to know
Like any crypto-asset, YNG is subject to price fluctuations, even significant ones: the value of the tokens you receive at the end of the lock-up period may be lower than what they are worth today. Furthermore, for the entire duration of the lock-up, the tokens are not available: you cannot sell or transfer them.
We remind you that no economic result is guaranteed. Crypto-assets do not benefit from bank deposit guarantee schemes or investor compensation schemes. You can find the full risk overview in the General Risk Disclosure and in the dedicated pre-contractual disclosure.
Tax aspects
Young Platform does not act as a withholding agent for income deriving from the Service: reporting and payment obligations remain your responsibility. To support you, Young Platform provides — in partnership with specialized professionals — tax advisory and reporting services for income tax returns, under the terms set out in the relevant Terms and Conditions. For your specific situation, consult a qualified accountant or tax advisor.
The Vesting Service is reserved for registered Young Platform users and is valid exclusively on new purchases of YNG at market price, with a minimum amount of €5,000 per transaction, subject to signing the relevant contract. The percentages of Additional YNG Tokens indicate quantities of tokens and do not in any way constitute a promise of return; their euro value can vary significantly depending on the token’s price performance. For the entire duration of the lock-up, the tokens are neither transferable nor usable and the transaction is irrevocable. YNG tokens are subject to market risk; the value of crypto-assets can decrease rapidly and you could lose the invested capital, in part or in full. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Consob authorises Young Platform, an industry leader in Italy, to operate as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP). The authorisation covers eight of ten services — among the broadest scopes applied for in the Italian market.
Turin, 30 June 2026 – Young Platform S.p.A., in which Azimut holds a stake, announces that it has obtained authorisation from Consob to operate as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (“MiCAR”), the framework that provides harmonised regulation of the crypto-asset market across the European Union. The authorisation was granted by formal decision of Consob.
Young Platform’s CASP authorisation comes in the context of the implementation of the MiCAR Regulation, whose transition period for crypto-asset service providers officially closes today, 30 June 2026. From this deadline onward, holding such a licence becomes an indispensable requirement for operating lawfully in the European Union market. By issuing this decision, Young Platform ensures full operational continuity for its customers.
The authorisation granted is broad in scope: Young Platform will be able to offer eight of ten crypto-asset services — almost the entire range of activities regulated by MiCAR — rather than being confined to a single segment. The aim is to support people at every stage of their relationship with crypto-assets, within a single regulated perimeter.
The customer journey begins with the custody and administration of crypto-assets (a), which the company safeguards and holds on behalf of clients, and continues with the execution of buy and sell orders (e) on Young Platform’s infrastructure. Alongside this come the exchange of crypto-assets (c, d) — both for legal-tender currency and for other crypto-assets — and their secure transfer (j) to and from external wallets and platforms, with precise tracking of every movement.
In the area of higher-value-added services, the authorisation enables personalised advice on crypto-assets (h) and portfolio management (i). The picture is completed by the placement service (f), through which Young Platform markets new third-party crypto-assets to its clients on behalf of the offeror. It is a tool designed for those wishing to bring a new token to market by relying on an authorised operator and a regulated distribution channel, within the categories set out in MiCAR (currently comprising utility tokens, asset-referenced tokens (ARTs) and e-money tokens (EMTs)). For issuers, it means reaching a large and already active community; for clients, curated access to new opportunities.
Such a wide range translates, for the customer, into a single point of reference: there is no need to turn to different operators to buy, hold, get guidance or launch a new project, because every service is available within a single authorised and supervised environment.
This is an offering that does not look solely to the retail public. Alongside private individuals, Young Platform serves a well-established base of business and institutional clients — companies that use the platform to manage collections and payments in crypto-assets and to diversify their treasury. It is precisely for this reason that several of the authorised services have also been conceived with a “corporate” focus, supported by tools dedicated to professional clients, such as the automatic conversion of collections into euros, the structured management of sub-accounts, and OTC operations on significant amounts. The MiCAR authorisation thus reinforces the Company’s ability to support these operators too, within a fully regulated framework.
“Obtaining MiCAR authorisation — and over such a broad scope — is the recognition of a path we have been pursuing for years: building an Italian company that puts customer protection and respect for the rules first,” says Alexandru Stefan Gheban, Co-CEO and co-founder of Young Platform. “We are able to support users in an ever more complete way along their entire journey with crypto-assets, operating within a transparent and certifiable system of safeguards. And thanks to the European passporting regime provided for by MiCAR, this authorisation allows us to look beyond national borders, bringing our services to other countries in the Union as well: this is the starting point for our international expansion,” adds Andrea Ferrero, Co-CEO and co-founder of the Company.
During the authorisation process, the company was supported, in the capacity of Chief Legal Officer, by lawyer Alessandro Negri della Torre, founder and managing partner of the law firm LX20 Law Firm, by the law firm Pedersoli & Gattai, and by the Company’s in-house legal team.
From 25 June 2026, the Young Platform Pro API infrastructure will be paused for a complete redesign. Find out what is changing for those operating with trading bots.
At Young Platform, we are currently aligning every level of our platform with the new European standards on crypto-assets (yes, the famous MiCAR regulation). This alignment does not just concern contractual documents or the app interface; it also impacts our most technical infrastructure — the one used by our most tech-savvy users.
For this reason, we are taking the Young Platform Pro APIs into the workshop: a scheduled pause and a complete redesign, ready to relaunch by the end of the year with a suite built on MiCAR requirements from the ground up.
Here are the dates you need to know, the reasons for the pause, and what to do if you run active bots or integrations.
Dates to Mark in Your Calendar
25 June 2026: Suspension of Operational APIs
Starting from this date, the following operational APIs will be deactivated:
Order placement — no new orders can be submitted via API.
Order cancellation — it will not be possible to cancel orders via the API.
Active order lookup — the open order book will no longer be accessible via API.
What remains active: Read-only (consultation) APIs not linked to trading operations — transaction history, balances, market data, and tax integrations — will continue to work normally. If you have an external tax calculation system connected, your operations will not be interrupted.
Fourth Quarter of 2026: The New API Suite
We are working in parallel on a completely redesigned set of APIs that are fully aligned with the MiCAR-compliant services offered by Young Platform. We will communicate the exact relaunch date with plenty of notice.
What Should I Do if I Use the APIs?
If you have bots, dashboards, or integrations running in production on our trading endpoints, please keep the following in mind:
Plan: Factor in the 25 June 2026 deadline for managing your integrations. From this date onwards, operational trading APIs will no longer be available.
Keep logs and documentation of your current integrations: You will need them when the new suite is rolled out.
Special use cases: If you engage in high-frequency trading, operate on high volumes, or run custom integrations that require coordination during this transition, please contact us via our official channels.
You will receive a dedicated update with further details on the timeline and transition procedures for the new suite.
Regulatory Context
The APIs currently in place were designed for a service scope predating the entry into force of MiCAR. Young Platform has decided to rebuild the infrastructure to meet the requirements of the new European framework from its initial design stages.
What is Not Changing
Your assets, your account, and your Clubs. All standard operations via the app and web platform will continue to function exactly as they do today. Read-only APIs (history, balance, market data, tax) remain fully operational. The pause exclusively affects operational trading APIs.
Have Questions? We Are Here to Help.
We understand that for those who operate programmatically, an infrastructure pause is a significant event. We are working hard to complete the transition within our estimated timeline. In the meantime, if you have any questions about your setup, timelines, or the transition process, our support team is available via our Support Centre.
For full regulatory details, we invite you to read the Official Service Information Notice. This article is a service information notice to keep you updated on developments regarding Young Platform’s infrastructure. It does not constitute financial advice or an invitation to invest. Crypto-assets involve risks. In the event of any discrepancy between the content of this article and the Official Service Information Notice, the latter shall prevail.

If you follow news from the European crypto world, you will have heard of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114. MiCA is the regulatory framework that brings crypto-asset services onto a regulated level similar to that of traditional financial services. It applies to all service providers active within the European Union, including Young Platform, in accordance with the terms and deadlines set out in the Regulation itself.
To achieve full alignment, certain platform contractual and disclosure documents will be updated.
What we are updating
The Terms and Conditions of our services;
Information Notices and Policies;
any separate communications regarding specific services that may require your explicit consent.
This process will not consist of a single, massive communication: each document will be updated and communicated separately, with a dedicated email explaining exactly what has changed, why, and — if necessary — what action is required from you.
No amendment will be retroactive. The conditions you accepted remain valid until the effective date of the new text, which you will receive with the required notice period.
What you need to do now
For now: nothing. However, you can do two useful things in advance:
Verify your email address. Contractual update communications will be sent to the email address associated with your account.
Update your profile if you have changed any relevant details since registration.
Keep an eye on your inbox in the coming weeks: some communications may require your active attention (reading, confirming, or accepting the new text).
MiCA is the way Europe has decided to bring the crypto world into a regulated perimeter, offering greater guarantees for users, greater transparency about the characteristics and risks of services, and increased operational robustness for platforms that operate professionally. It is the regulatory framework that introduces harmonised standards of transparency, governance, and user protection for the crypto-assets sector.
Updating our documents is how we formalise this transition. It is an exercise we are conducting with the utmost care, and you will see this reflected progressively in every document we send you.
For full regulatory details, please consult the official Disclosure on our website. For any questions, Support is available.

At Young Platform, we are constantly working to offer you an experience that is increasingly seamless, secure, and fully aligned with the latest European standards (the famous MiCAR regulation, for the industry nerds out there!).
With this in mind, we have decided to temporarily pause our Smart Trades feature and take it to the “workshop” for a complete makeover.
Don’t worry, it is just a “see you soon”! Here is everything you need to know about this transition, explained in plain English.
Dates to mark in your calendar
To get things just right, we will proceed in stages:
25 June 2026 From this date, it will no longer be possible to open new Smart Trades, and the feature will be temporarily deactivated.
By the end of 2026 We are working hard to relaunch a brand-new and improved Smart Trades experience by the end of 2026. We will share the exact date with you later on!
What should I do if I have an active Smart Trade?
We recommend that you manually close your active Smart Trades directly from the app at any time by 24 June 2026.
What if I forget? No need to panic! On 25 June, we will automatically close any remaining active Smart Trades for you. Your crypto-assets are perfectly safe: they will automatically return to your Main Wallet, right back where they belong.
Clubs and YNG Token: Will anything change?
Absolutely not.
We know that Smart Trades are one of the benefits of the Young Platform Clubs, and we are sorry this feature won’t be available for a few months. However, all other benefits of your Club remain 100% active and operational.
Nothing changes for our YNG token either. The locking mechanisms (which allow you to level up in the Clubs), staking, and the availability of the token in the app will remain exactly as you know them.
This communication does not modify the Terms and Conditions of the service, nor the YNG token White Paper.
Any questions? We’re here!
We are redesigning Smart Trades to make them even more useful for your market strategies. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been working on! In the meantime, if you have any questions or doubts, our support team is always at your disposal via the Support website.

What happened in the first quarter of 2026? What lies ahead in the coming months? How many YNG tokens were issued, bought and sold — and what are the next steps?
2026 began with the same spirit that closed the previous year: the drive to turn promises into action. If 2025 was the year we redefined our horizon, this first quarter saw that horizon become concrete. The standout event of these months was undoubtedly the rollout of the payment account and debit card.
Despite the milestones achieved, the context in which we have operated has been anything but simple. Early-year expectations pointed to a decisive recovery, but we have had to contend with a global market held back by a tense international climate. In this uncertain scenario, our ecosystem has demonstrated lower volatility compared to the main market assets in the reference period: the YNG token has withstood the impact with a stability that confirms how its value is now anchored to solid foundations and to the utility real within the app.
The payment account and the debit card represent only the first version of a much larger project. This foundation is the starting point for building the super app we have in mind, a vision that will take concrete shape in the coming months. In the meantime, we are working to expand the ecosystem through targeted marketing activities: capturing an ever-growing share of customers is vital for the token and for the ecosystem which, in our view, still presents wide margins for development and organic growth relative to the expressed value.
The climate for the coming months is one of great momentum. The MiCA authorisation deadline is approaching and our dossier is under review by the authorities, while prize competitions and engagement mechanics continue to evolve. We are also working on a new feature, previewed exclusively to Club members during the Winter Summit 2026, which adds a further element to our offering. Welcome to the report on the Young (YNG) token for the first quarter of 2026. Happy reading!
Price Analysis: YNG’s Resilience
To frame YNG’s performance this quarter, look at the market’s ‘king’: Bitcoin lost around 15% year-to-date, with a drawdown exceeding 30% at its worst point in February. Against this backdrop, YNG moved in the opposite direction, limiting losses to 5%. Despite being roughly halfway from the October 2025 all-time high, volatility was well below the sector average.
Key technical levels:
Resistance: the barrier to break sits at €0.49, the peak reached after the Uniswap listing.
Support: the €0.41 zone proved a solid floor, holding throughout the quarter.
How long this consolidation phase lasts will depend largely on easing international tensions. A de-escalation could restore confidence in risk assets and Bitcoin, reigniting retail investor enthusiasm that has been absent for some time. We will not simply wait. We continue working to be ready when the wind changes. Details on new listing plans and our expansion strategy are reserved for Club members.
Payment Account and Young Card
The launch of the Young payment account and debit card is the first concrete step toward the super app we want to build — a financial ecosystem that brings together everything a user needs, from daily cash management to the crypto world, all under one roof.
At the heart of this vision is a simple idea: there is no app today that addresses two deep needs of the Italian saver. The first is the safe custody of personal finances, with immediate access to the sector’s most advanced tools. The second is financial education — ongoing guidance that asks the right questions about spending habits and encourages saving and investing in a conscious, safe way. This direction was central to the workshop presented at the Starting Finance Investment Meeting, where the team shared Young Platform’s vision as an active financial education tool.
The technical core of this first version is the Italian IBAN assigned to every user. The strategic advantage lies in the integration with the exchange: transferring funds between the account and the crypto wallet is instant and commission-free.
The physical debit card introduces a new dimension for the YNG token. Every purchase generates a YNG cashback, transforming the token from a simple digital asset into a strategic resource that can be accumulated every day. The tokens earned are not just a reward — they are the key to levelling up in the Clubs.
To accelerate adoption, we activated a dedicated promotion: the first 1,000 users who sign up in April will receive a 3% cashback for 90 days, regardless of their Club tier.
From Layer 0 to Future Evolutions
What we released is what we call the “Layer 0“: a solid foundation to build on. The roadmap is already defined:
Integration of the digital card with Apple Pay and Google Pay
Analytics tools for conscious spending monitoring
A dedicated Save section for savings
The goal is not marketing for its own sake, but building a financial model that genuinely simplifies users’ lives by bringing accounts and exchanges together. Each new feature will be another step toward an app that does not yet exist in the market.
Tax Services: Zero Stress, Full Clarity
It’s that time of year nobody particularly enjoys, but which must be tackled with the right tools: the tax return. Italian crypto tax regulation has become a maze, which is why for three years we have been turning what was a simple Excel file into a complete ecosystem of tax solutions. Our tools are ready to cover every need for the 2025 tax year.

Club Essential: €69
Club Silver: €59
Club Gold: €49
Club Platinum: €44
The New Rules: 26% or 33%?
The 2026 Budget Law introduced a key distinction:
33% rate: for exchanging crypto for euros, dollars or dollar-pegged stablecoins (USDT, USDC).
26% rate: for euro-pegged stablecoins (such as EURC).
Crypto-to-crypto swaps (e.g. BTC to ETH) remain tax-neutral. However, with the abolition of the €2,000 allowance, every euro of capital gain must now be declared.
Using YNG tokens to activate a Club not only brings cashback on the card — it also cuts the real costs of tax management. Proof that the token is not just an asset to watch on a chart, but a tool that saves real money every time you deal with bureaucracy.
Real-World Presence
As previewed in the Q4 2025 report, 2026 was set to mark a decisive shift in our physical presence. We delivered on that commitment, building a plan for ongoing community engagement through direct interaction and institutional participation. What you are reading is only the first chapter in a series of events we will continue to promote.
Young Platform Winter Summit: The Way to the Top
On 8 March 2026, the Platinum Experience launched with the “The Way to the Top” summit at Skyway Monte Bianco. The event, reserved for partners and the most committed Club members, took place at 3,466 metres above sea level — an exceptional setting to preview the YNG ecosystem roadmap in an authentic networking environment.
The energy and feedback from participants confirm that direct closeness between the team and the community is essential for building something that lasts.
Starting Finance Investment Meeting
Young Platform participated as Gold Sponsor at the Starting Finance Investment Meeting 2026 in Rome, one of Italy’s leading events dedicated to financial education and markets. Two key moments:
The team presented Young Platform’s development strategy toward the super app model and the vision for active financial education.
A workshop explored the cognitive biases that influence investment decisions, focusing on practical tools to recognise and reduce their impact.
The success of the 5% cashback promotion at our stand demonstrated strong interest in the new integrated features. These events are the starting point of a journey to make Club membership a tangible advantage.
Arcade: Tap to Play
On 10 March, the Young Platform contest trilogy concluded with the end of The Reveal. After the success of The Box and The Unbox, this final phase marked the community’s engagement peak, with iconic prizes such as Rolex watches and KTM motorcycles.
With the trilogy complete, we launched Arcade: the new permanent gamification hub. Arcade is not just a prize draw — it’s a section of the app designed to turn every saving and investment choice into concrete rewards. The philosophy remains to incentivise virtuous financial behaviour through fun and consistent participation.
The key innovation is the Tap to Play mechanic:
Daily interaction: users are encouraged to open the app and engage with the ecosystem, keeping attention on their assets and the platform’s latest features.
Democratised rewards: following the tier system already tested successfully, Arcade lets anyone be competitive — what matters is consistency, not just financial capacity.
Future vision: Arcade is the tool we are using to dismantle the boredom of traditional finance, one tap at a time.
With Arcade and Tap to Play, managing your financial health stops being a passive obligation and becomes an active, rewarding experience.
