Deep Tidal TechFlow messages: On September 22, according to a report by Bitcoin News, Kraken co-CEO David Ripley said that the United States has adopted a relatively hostile and politicized stance toward the regulation of crypto assets, while the European Union has provided the industry with clearer and more stable rules through the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) bill. He warned that the Clarity Act is moving slowly and could weaken the U.S.’ leading position in financial innovation. Kraken obtained its MiCA license from the Central Bank of Ireland in June 2025, allowing it to conduct compliant business across 30 member states of the European Economic Area.
