Cardano Capital Review

About Cardano Capital

Cardano Capital (via domain cardano‑capital.de) is an unregulated entity which claims to provide trading services in assets including funds, indices, cryptocurrencies, stocks, energy, and other derivatives. No records were found for “Cardano Capital LTD” in the register of Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), indicating absence of regulation in Germany (). The broker also claims affiliations with UK law or registration with the U.S. SEC, neither of which were corroborated by entries in the UK’s FCA or the U.S. SEC/CFTC/NFA databases ().

Reportedly, the minimum deposit is €10,000; there is no segregated account protection, no negative balance protection, and no compensation schemes (). The entity claims to support trading across multiple instruments and platforms, but access to MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 was not confirmed (). Deposit methods are said to include credit/debit cards, with withdrawal fees substantial and penalties attached to unverified accounts, as well as terms on bonus usage that impose a 30× turnover requirement before withdrawal eligibility ().
