Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation: webinar gratuito il 15 settembre

-

The Status Quo, Regulatory Gaps and the Road to MiCA 2. September 15 @ 11:00 am – 12:30 pm CEST

 Webinar gratuito in lingua inglese a cura dell’associazione BETTER FINANCE (Bruxelles)

Date: 15 September 2026 | Time: 11:00 – 12:30 CEST | Location: Online

The Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation positioned the European Union as the first major jurisdiction to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto-assets.

However, implementation has also exposed legal uncertainties, practical inconsistencies and potential gaps in investor protection. At the same time, rapid technological and market developments are already testing whether the current framework remains sufficiently clear, proportionate and effective.

Under these circumstances, the European Commission’s targeted consultation provides an important opportunity to assess how MiCA is functioning in practice and which issues may need to be addressed in a future review of the framework, often referred to as “MiCA 2.0”.

To discuss such an issue, BETTER FINANCE is organising a webinar:

Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation

The Status Quo, Regulatory Gaps, and the Road to MiCA 2.0

This webinar brings together leading academics, legal experts and investor-protection specialists to examine three areas with particular relevance for policymakers and supervisory authorities:

  • – the scope and application of the MiCA white-paper requirements;
  • – the effectiveness of the current investor-protection framework; and
  • – the implementation of MiCA’s sustainability-disclosure requirements by crypto-asset service providers.

The speakers will combine legal analysis with new empirical findings from the European crypto-asset market. The discussion will conclude with concrete policy takeaways for legislators, regulators, supervisory authorities and other stakeholders involved in the further development of the EU crypto-asset framework.
