Alternatives to MiCA - Ilija Rilakovic

While MiCA aims to bring much-needed clarity and stability to the sector, many argue it may also stifle innovation and create entry barriers for smaller players. But what if there's another way? Turning to non-EU jurisdictions, I’ll take a dive into alternative regulatory approaches—highlighting how it has carved out a more flexible, arguably innovation-friendly environment. As the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation takes effect across the EU, crypto asset service providers (CASPs) and token issuers are navigating a new, unified legal landscape—one that introduces significant licensing requirements, capital obligations, and consumer protection standards. This talk will explore the structure and implications of MiCA, focusing on key requirements for CASPs, such as mandatory authorization by national authorities, stringent AML/KYC policies, and operational and prudential safeguards. We’ll compare how some non-EU countries handle licensing, token classification, and compliance requirements for exchanges and wallet providers, and discuss whether those models could serve as a viable alternative or even a blueprint for countries wary of MiCA’s prescriptive nature. This session is not only for legal professionals but also for policy thinkers and builders. Follow ETHPrague: https://x.com/EthPrague Join Telegram group: https://t.me/ethprague
