Regulation of cryptocurrencies in the USA and EU.
USA
In the USA, cryptocurrency regulation is carried out by several agencies, including the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) and CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission).
In 2024, the SEC announced that some cryptocurrencies will be considered exchange-traded products (ETPs), allowing them to integrate into the traditional economy.
This was part of efforts to improve regulation and risk management in the cryptocurrency industry.
EU
In the European Union, MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) was adopted in April 2023.
This regulation is the world's first comprehensive set of rules for the cryptocurrency industry.
It aims to ensure transparency, consumer safety, and stability of the financial system.
Starting from January 2026, all service providers will be required to obtain a license and provide information about the senders and recipients of transactions.
