The European Union has authorized 12 new crypto-asset service providers under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, increasing the total to 321 as part of ongoing efforts to standardize crypto licensing across member states. The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) continues to coordinate consistent supervision but faces pressure to take a more prominent regulatory role due to uneven national licensing practices.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a tightening EU crypto market with more licensed firms under MiCA but uneven regulator enforcement. This opens a window to engage national authorities now before ESMA re-centralizes supervision and changes licensing dynamics.
