A protocol tokenising regulated European money market funds, holding $2.34bn across seven chains with published audits.

Our assessment

Spiko holds $2.34bn across seven chains with two audits and reports linked. It tokenises regulated European money market funds — a different regulatory basis from the US-centric products that dominate this category.

European regulation is not a copy of the US model

MiCA and the EU fund frameworks impose different requirements on issuance, custody, disclosure and investor eligibility. For European institutions, a product structured under rules their own regulator recognises is not a preference — it is the difference between being able to hold it and not.

Euro-denominated exposure fills a real gap

Almost all tokenised treasury products are dollar-denominated, which forces European holders into currency risk they may not want. Euro money market exposure on-chain removes that, and it is a straightforward need that most of the sector has ignored.

What the audits do and do not cover

Two audits with linked reports cover the token contracts. The underlying fund's regulation, custody and reporting sit within the traditional framework, which brings supervision the crypto sector lacks and settlement mechanics slower than on-chain users expect. Both facts follow from the same structure.

Who it suits

Spiko fits European institutions and users wanting euro-denominated regulated yield on-chain. Dollar-denominated holders will find deeper markets in Ondo, BUIDL or USYC.

Frequently asked

Does this score mean Spiko is safe?

No. It measures what an outsider can verify: linked audits, published methodology and independently recorded data. Contract and custody risk are not tested by us.

Where do these figures come from?

A public analytics dataset queried at the verification date, plus the audit reports it links. Anyone can re-run the query.

Why do some protocols score zero on audits?

Because no audit report is linked in the public record. It records what a user can reach, not a claim that no audit exists.
