MiCA and the future of Monero in EU
summary
MiCA includes a specific recital exempting decentralized services, but exchanges increasingly de-list privacy coins to reduce compliance risk and fiat rails pressure them; Kraken publicly resists. The European Data Protection Board delays a formal DLT opinion that would have declared many ledgers unsuitable for data protection. The Monero community focuses on hardening the stack, making nodes and wallet UX easier, and reviving a policy working group exploring litigation scenarios and regulatory countermeasures.
