Abstract: The Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA) aims1 to create a harmonised regulatory framework for crypto assets in the EU. MiCA will provide legal clarity and certainty for developing and using crypto assets and distributive ledger technology in financial services while ensuring high consumer and investor protection and market integrity. MiCA will establish a harmonised pan-EU regime for crypto assets, bringing unregulated crypto assets outside the regulatory perimeter into scope.
