The document discusses upcoming European regulations on crypto-assets, including the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). MiCA will establish a regulatory framework for crypto-asset services across the EU, providing legal certainty and supporting innovation while ensuring consumer protection and market integrity. MiCA will regulate the issuance and offering of crypto-assets, requiring a white paper, and the provision of crypto-asset services, which will generally require prior authorization. MiCA introduces opportunities for crypto markets through legal certainty, harmonization at the EU level, and introduction of a European passport allowing cross-border operations once authorized.
