There’s a huge crypto rules package in the European Union. It’s called MiCA, and it’s somewhat different from the regulatory approach in the US.
To learn more, we speak with Bryan Hollmann, an American attorney and counsel at Stadler Völkel in Vienna, Austria. He focuses on blockchain and digital assets regulation.
We discuss what MiCA and other crypto rules mean for Bitcoin, and for US firms that want to set up in the EU. We also compare the regulatory approaches to Bitcoin and the broader crypto world on either side of the ocean.
