The EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation, adopted in 2023, establishes a comprehensive framework for regulating crypto-assets across the 27 member states. It aims to protect consumers, ensure financial stability, and foster innovation. MiCA categorizes crypto-assets into three types: asset-referenced tokens, e-money tokens, and other crypto-assets. It imposes requirements on issuers, including transparency, disclosure, and authorization, while crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) must comply with licensing, anti-money laundering, and operational standards. MiCA enhances market integrity, mitigates risks like fraud, and promotes cross-border consistency. Full implementation is expected by December 2024, with some provisions phased in earlier.
