The European Commission recently approved a new regulation on Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCa).

The new regulation aims to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. The regulation is part of the European Union's (EU) larger effort to advance development in the financial sector while ensuring financial stability and consumer protection. 

MiCA substantially advances the EU's regulation of cryptocurrencies and digital assets. By establishing standardised rules and requirements for these activities, the regulation seeks to level up the playing field for all market participants, including issuers, trading platforms and service providers. Additionally, the regulation would ensure investors' safety from fraud and other risks related to the use of digital assets.

From Cybersecurity To Supply Chain Sovereignty In CSA2: The Spotlight On Suppliers

In January 2026, the European Commission unveiled its plan to overhaul the EU's Cybersecurity Act, a proposal now known as CSA2. It's the natural next step in a story that began years earlier with the EU's 2020 "5G Security Toolbox" - a set of voluntary recommendations encouraging Member States to be cautious about certain telecom suppliers. That voluntary approach produced patchy results: by most accounts, fewer than half of EU countries had actually acted on those recommendations. It is worth asking whether the adoption levels were however a failure of design, or a reflection of Member States reaching different conclusions about their risk exposures.
