Ideas from practice
Articles by Dmytro Nasyrov
EUDI Wallet Relying Party
Before a single attribute can be requested from an EUDI Wallet, the business behind the integration has to be a registered relying party in the Member State where it is established. This is what that registration involves, what it permanently constrains and what happens when it is refused or withdrawn.
Booking Engine Development
Booking engine development for a flights-first product: what happens at search, price, hold, order and ticket, where each state fails and recovers and when to build against a self-service aggregator versus license or white-label instead.
ESMA Q&A 2552: Crypto-Assets Without an Identifiable Issuer
On 18 February 2026, nearly nine months after the question was submitted, the European Commission answered ESMA Q&A 2552: crypto-assets without an identifiable issuer sit outside MiCA Title II, so no white paper is required and Article 5(2) does not bind the platforms that list them. The answer that underpins Bitcoin and Ether listings across the EU is an administrative Q&A interpreting a recital, and neither is binding law. We trace what the Q&A actually says, what it leaves standing and what an engineering team builds around a determination that can be challenged years later.
EUDI Wallet Integration
The first decision in an EUDI Wallet integration is not which vendor to buy. It is which credential format you accept, because one route keeps the whole build inside specifications the framework itself sets requirements out from and the other puts an ISO standard your team has to obtain separately on the critical path.
MPC vs Multisig vs HSM
The engineering decision underneath MiCA custody: MPC threshold signatures, HSM tamper-response hardware and on-chain multi-sig compared on single-point-of-failure resistance, auditability, recovery, cost and chain-agnosticism, with a cold/warm/hot tiering pattern and key ceremony, rotation and disaster-recovery design notes.
