Enforcement of global crypto regulations
The year 2024 was marked by legislative and regulatory advancements in the crypto sector globally. Governments around the world are taking concrete steps to more effectively regulate the blockchain and cryptocurrency industries.
In the EU, the adoption of the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation marks a historic effort to create a comprehensive legal framework for crypto-assets in all member states. The framework supports market integrity and financial stability by regulating public offerings of crypto-assets, ensuring that companies are licensed and compliant.
From January 2026, all service providers will need to obtain the names of senders and recipients, regardless of the amount transferred. Additionally, any self-hosted wallet holding more than 1,000 EUR will need to undergo wallet ownership verification for transactions.
In the UK, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) continues its rigorous oversight of cryptocurrency activities, enforcing strict marketing and reporting standards to ensure consumer safety and market transparency. There are cryptocurrency-specific reporting requirements related to KYC standards, as well as anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism.
The World Economic Forum highlights that international alignment on certain rules relating to cryptocurrencies is necessary to maximize the benefits of the underlying technology and manage the risks.
