Compliance frameworks — AML, KYC, market structure, licensing regimes, and custody rules.
The discussion paper lands the first structured attempt by a national EU regulator to operationalize MiCA's 'full decentralisation' carve-out — and it lands while MiCA's DeFi gap is still being…
The buyback is a confidence vote, not a turnaround — the equity is still trading near $6.07 against an $18 January IPO, and rivals Kraken and Consensys have already pulled their listings.
Roughly 75% of pre-MiCA crypto registrations in Europe are expected to lapse this month — BitGo's BaFin-authorized custody stack offers a faster on-ramp than building a regulated stack from scratch.
The 130-page proposal treats permitted stablecoin issuers like banks under the Bank Secrecy Act — the structural win legitimizers want, with secondary-market KYC flagged as the open fight.
The proposal wires stablecoin issuers into the Bank Secrecy Act alongside banks — and the dissent from Michael Barr signals the harder fight is in the secondary market, not the issuer.
The Zug-based firm says it tracks 99.41% of all stablecoin payments and protects over $30B in customer assets — signals that the compliance layer beneath the stablecoin stack is starting to attract…
