Stable coins seem to be a priority in the UK, which is Europe's biggest financial center. The British government is trying to forge a new identity as a buccaneering, business-friendly actor after leaving the European Union. John Glen, the economic secretary to the treasury, said in a recent speech that stable coins would be brought into the British payment framework.
Is it possible that the exchanges will be regulated.
The first point of contact for people looking to buy cryptocurrencies is the coin exchanges. Some of them have come under fire for lack of clarity on their corporate structure. Although it recently secured a digital asset service provider in France, the world's largest exchange has been banned from operating in the UK and other countries because of its location.
Lawmakers in the US and the EU want to make exchanges more transparent.
Some of the provisions in the Digital Commodity Exchange Act are included in the Lummis-Gillibrand bill. Exchanges would be required to observe standards of consumer protection, prevention of market manipulation, conflict of interest, and information-sharing, and adopt measures to protect customers' assets in case of bankruptcies. It would afford registered exchanges some advantages if they were to register with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
MiCA requires exchanges that cater to EU citizens in the EU to have an office in the EU and be authorized to operate by a member state. Exchanges can't advertise their services across the EU if they don't comply with the requirements. Rules against insider trading and market manipulation would be introduced by MiCA.
The non-Custodial wallet is out of reach.
Anti-money-laundering and know-your-customer rules in the US and many European countries are binding on exchanges and wallet providers. Non-custodial or self-hosted wallets that are not run by a centralized company are out of reach for most people.
The EU passed a new anti-money-laundering regulation last week that was similar to MiCA. First and foremost, the law deals with company- managed wallets. It requires that service providers in the EU screen potential customers for red flags, and that they log the identities of people who send and receive currency on their platforms. If necessary, that information will have to be provided to law enforcement.
When a custodial wallet user receives more than 1,000 from a non-custodial wallet, the organization managing the wallet must verify that the unhosted wallet also belongs to the user. Transactions exceeding the threshold will not be allowed unless a user is self- transferring between their non-custodial and custodial wallet. The norm does not apply to peer-to-Peer transactions. anonymity will still be allowed as long as it is confined to the digital world.
