ZK proofs to be embedded in EU law! The European Parliament has officially included use of zero-knowledge proofs in its negotiation positions for the trilogues with the Council on the regulation of digital identity & related 🇪🇺 apps #privacy #digitalidentity #ZeroKnowledgeProofs Image Unless the Council firmly objects, zero-knowledge proofs will be in EU law on digital identity & future EU apps, giving individuals greater control over their personal data, increasing trust in digital transactions, & facilitating cross-border interoperability of EU eID solutions

Stablecoins are not securities in the EU 🇪🇺 🇺🇸. The EU has established clear regulations in its law on Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) which classify payment stablecoins as electronic money on open, public blockchains. #PaymentStablecoins #MiCA The EU's regulations on payment stablecoins simply stop the discussion of stablecoins being securities before it gets started. Payment stablecoins are explicitly defined as electronic money, providing clarity and certainty for both issuers and users. #NotASecurity

Don't panic, US crypto community! The EU's got your back with laws that protect crypto companies, Defi, & Web3. While the US may try to debank, de-stake & reduce use of public blockchains, the EU's legal framework provides a safe haven for crypto in 27 jurisdictions. #crypto De-banking crypto companies in the US? Not so fast! In the EU, we have a rule-based legal framework that limits the power of regulators. EU laws for fintech, payment institutions, and e-money licenses ensure that crypto companies will always have access to on/off ramps

French Governor of the Central Bank 🇫🇷, Mr Francois Villeroy de Galhau, highlights the need for stablecoin regulation to counter off-shore issuers that harm trust, uptake, investors and consumers 👏 After recent failures & crimes in the digital asset industry, it's time to regulate #stablecoins in all western jurisdictions, according to Mr Villeroy de Galhau. No more waiting for the "crypto winter" to solve problems! 🤝
