The European Parliament’s recent adoption of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (the “MiCA”) seeks to regulate and track all crypto-assets, including crypto currencies, NFT’s, issuers of utility tokens, asset referenced tokens and so-called ‘stablecoins’, across the EU, to ensure transparency, uniformity, and security in the realm of digital assets.

Katerina also touches on Cyprus as an emerging tech hub in Europe, and a highly competitive jurisdiction for fintech and crypto businesses.
