Article 5 Trading capacity of participants of the trading platform for crypto-assets

Summary What does Article 5 of the RTS on trading platform order book records say?

This is a notably brief, single-sentence article.

It sits within a broader set of articles detailing the specific data fields that crypto-asset service providers operating trading platforms must record in their order book records.

Article 5 deals specifically with one such data point: the trading capacity of the participant submitting an order, directing that this information be captured in a prescribed format.

Important points:

Record the trading capacity of each participant submitting an order to the trading platform for crypto-assets.
The recording must follow the specification set out in field 7 of Table 2 of the Annex.
This obligation applies to crypto-asset service providers operating a trading platform for crypto-assets.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

The trading capacity in which the participant of the trading platform for crypto-assets submits an order shall be recorded as specified in field 7 of Table 2 of the Annex.
