European Union officials have agreed to adopt new regulation called the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework, which would cover stablecoins, crypto exchanges and wallets. |
Notably, the regulation would require stablecoin issuers to build up sufficiently liquid reserves, as well as cap transactions of the token at 200 million euros per day β significantly below the transaction volumes seen in major stablecoins today. |
MiCA will also require crypto-asset service providers to "adhere to strict requirements aimed at protecting consumers" and can be held liable if they lose investor assets. |
Almost $200 million in Bitcoin and Ether futures positions were liquidated yesterday in a significant short-squeeze, as Bitcoin price jumped from recent lows to almost $20,900 in a matter of minutes. |

Meta's Facebook has initiated the roll-out of its first non-fungible token (NFT) feature, beginning with a select group of US creators β a week after CEO Mark Zuckerberg's announcement of the plan. |
