Crypto Exchange Coinbase (COIN) to Delist Unauthorized Stablecoins in EU by December
Coinbase, the second largest cryptocurrency exchange, is making efforts to comply with the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulations. According to CoinGecko data, Coinbase is trailing behind Bybit as the biggest exchange in the market.
The MiCA regulations require cryptocurrency firms to be authorized in at least one EU country. Coinbase, along with other companies, is in a race to meet these regulations. The rules specifically target stablecoins, with regulations coming into effect on June 30. Stablecoin issuers are now required to obtain an e-money license from an EU member state in order to operate within the bloc of 27 nations.
Compliance with these regulations is crucial for Coinbase as it continues to expand its presence in the European market. By obtaining the necessary licenses and authorizations, Coinbase will be able to navigate the regulatory landscape effectively and provide its services to a wider range of customers.
As the cryptocurrency industry continues to evolve, regulatory compliance is becoming increasingly important. Coinbase’s proactive approach to meeting the MiCA regulations demonstrates its commitment to operating within the legal framework set forth by the EU.
