You can now watch a recording of the AFM's webinar on #MiCA. Definitely useful for anyone applying/considering to apply for a MiCA licence. ❗ The Q&A session is particularly interesting as the #AFM addresses several important topics: expectations for #CASPs concerning unauthorised stablecoins in light of the June 30 deadline (this Sunday), substance requirements for MiCA licence applicants, #DORA compliance, the scope of MiCA and its impact on proprietary firms, supervisory fees, and more.

🐶 Today is great day for a dog walk, the snow is still on the ground and air is fresh. I tried to explain to Max who’s just a wee puppy that the 3rd consultation under #mica was recently published. In return I received that blank look that’s something like, could you simplify that, so here’s a simplified version. I managed to condense it down to 7 points. 1️⃣ #esma (European Securities and Markets Authority) has launched the third consultation under the Markets in CryptoAssets Regulation (MiCA). 2️⃣ The consultation seeks input on four sets of proposed rules and guidelines, including detection and reporting of suspected market abuse in cryptoassets, policies and procedures for cryptoasset transfer services, suitability requirements for certain cryptoasset services, and ICT operational resilience. 3️⃣ Stakeholders are encouraged to provide feedback by 25 June 2024. 4️⃣ ESMA will publish a final report based on the feedback received and submit the draft technical standards to the European Commission for endorsement by 30 December 2024. 5️⃣ The article also mentions the timeline for MiCA implementing measures and the transitional period. 6️⃣ Additional information is available through the provided contact, Cristina Bonillo, Senior Communications Officer at ESMA. 7️⃣ The article references related documents, including the outcome of the first year of the DLT Pilot Regime, ESMA's final rules on cryptoasset service providers, updated Q&As by ESMA, and recommendations by ESAs to enhance monitoring of BigTechs' financial services activities. https://lnkd.in/dz3brzUX

ESMA is preparing the implementation of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation. #MiCA is a crucial regulatory step, but it does not address all the risks associated with cryptos – hence it is not a safe haven for investors 🙉. #BeCryptoAware #CryptoAssets #MiCA #ESMA #CySEC
#BeCryptoAware | ESMA is preparing the implementation of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation. #MiCA is a crucial regulatory step, but it does not address all the risks associated with cryptos – hence it is not a safe haven for investors 🙉. Based on our experience with two rounds of consultations launched and one yet to come, a constructive dialogue with the industry, and a fruitful exchange with decision makers, we put together a few important reminders 🙋 → https://lnkd.in/d4k_yZKV. 🗓️ Timeline buzz: While MiCA has been adopted by legislators, there is still a long way before it fully enters into application – July 2026. ⚠️ Transitional period: The period before full application might create confusion for investors regarding applicable rules and increase the risk of regulatory arbitrage. 🧿 National eye: Competent authorities will set in place authorisation procedures, communication lines with industry, effective coordination with other EU NCAs. 🔊 Industry take: Get ready-set-go for adapting business practices and applying the MiCA rules as early as possible. And because the devil is in the details 👇

Great overview. However, once MiCA's proposed ESG standards take effect, crypto assets may not emerge as the greenest products, but they will undoubtedly become the most transparent ones. For what other investment product, such as stocks and ETFs, investors know the electricity consumption, CO2 emissions and waste associated with their production? Crypto assets are poised to provide comprehensive transparency in these aspects.
