On 13 February 2025, eight Commission Delegated Regulations supplementing the Regulation on markets in cryptoassets (MiCAR) were published in the Official Journal of the EU (OJ).
The Delegated Regulations supplement MiCAR with regulatory technical standards (RTS) in relation to the following topics:
- A template document for cooperation arrangements between competent authorities and supervisory authorities of third countries.
- The requirements, templates and procedures for the handling of complaints relating to asset referenced tokens (ARTs).
- The requirements, templates and procedures for the handling of complaints by the crypto-asset service providers.
- Harmonisation of conditions enabling the conduct of the oversight activities.
- The procedure for the approval of a crypto-asset white paper.
- The conditions for the establishment and functioning of consultative supervisory colleges.
- The methodology to estimate the number and value of transactions associated to uses of ARTs and of e-money tokens denominated in a currency that is not an official currency of a Member State as a means of exchange.
- Continuity and regularity in the performance of crypto-asset services.
Each of the Delegated Regulations will enter into force on the twentieth day following their publication in the OJ.
