The texts are now only pending final endorsement by the European Council before they are published in the Official Journal.<\/p>\n<p>Parliamentarian and rapporteur Stefan Berger said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;This puts the EU at the forefront of the token economy with 10 000 different crypto assets.

The travel rule will apply to all cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>The new regulation will allow regulators to trace certain crypto transfers and block suspicious transfers. According to the announcement:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Information on the source of the [crypto] asset and its beneficiary will have to \u201ctravel\u201d with the transaction and be stored on both sides of the transfer.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Parliament clarified that this will only apply to transfers facilitated by companies or funds sent to public wallets controlled by centralized entities like an exchange and that transfers between two individuals will be exempt from these rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Parliament voted in favor of adopting the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation and rules around crypto transfers on April 20 with overwhelming support.
