This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), the European Union’s groundbreaking framework for regulating crypto-assets. Designed to enhance transparency, investor protection, and market integrity, MiCA establishes a harmonized set of rules across EU member states, covering cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, utility tokens, and service providers. Participants will explore the scope and application of MiCA, including licensing requirements for crypto-asset service providers (CASPs), operational and organizational obligations, consumer protection measures, and provisions against market abuse. The course also examines the supervisory and enforcement mechanisms underpinning MiCA and its expected global impact as a benchmark for crypto regulation. Through practical insights and case studies, learners will gain the knowledge needed to navigate this evolving regulatory landscape, ensuring compliance while supporting innovation in the crypto-assets market.
