EU reviews whether crypto lending falls under Markets in Crypto-Assets rules
The European Commission is reviewing whether decentralized finance (DeFi) lending vaults should be regulated under Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA), the bloc's crypto regulation framework. Determining who should be regulated in DeFi vaults remains a complex challenge.
Why it matters for the crypto market
Crypto lending is a major source of yield for investors; MiCA expansion would significantly affect DeFi protocol operations and user access across the EU.
