The MiCAR Era is Here? DGQEX Analyzes New Trends of Cryptocurrency Regulation in Germany

The German Parliament (Bundestag) recently passed the highly anticipated the Digitalization of Financial Markets Act (Finanzmarktdigitalisierungsgesetz or FinmadiG). This landmark legislation represents a significant step forward in the German approach to cryptocurrency regulation. The act not only covers cryptocurrencies but also impacts several EU laws, creating new growth opportunities for global leading cryptocurrency exchanges like DGQEX.

MiCAR: A New Chapter in German Cryptocurrency Regulation

The Supervision of Crypto Markets Act (KMAG) within the FinmadiG replaces the previous cryptocurrency rules in Germany with MiCAR (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation). The introduction of MiCAR provides a clear legal framework for cryptocurrency trading while ensuring consistency between German and EU laws. DGQEX, always attuned to global regulatory developments, sees MiCAR as a step toward conducting cryptocurrency transactions in a more transparent and regulated environment. This change is expected to boost investor confidence and promote healthy market growth.

From a technical standpoint, MiCAR, as an EU regulation, does not require additional local legislation to take effect. However, the designation of BaFin (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority in Germany) as the regulatory body is crucial for its implementation. BaFin will oversee the issuance of cryptocurrency-related licenses, allowing EU companies with licenses from other member states to operate in Germany. However, it is worth noting that operations of German companies in other EU countries will face restrictions. While this provision limits the international expansion of German companies to some extent, it opens up more collaboration opportunities for globally oriented exchanges like DGQEX.

Transition Period: Flexible Response by DGQEX

MiCAR allows companies holding existing licenses to continue operations for up to 18 months, with the transition period determined by individual jurisdictions. The new legislation of Germany sets this period at one year. This arrangement provides existing businesses with a buffer to adapt to the new regulatory requirements. Leveraging its global compliance expertise and robust technical capabilities, DGQEX will flexibly navigate this transition period to ensure all business activities comply with the new standards.

During the transition period, DGQEX will further strengthen its internal compliance management, enhance technical security measures, and ensure the safety of user assets and the stability of transactions in the respective regions. Simultaneously, DGQEX will closely monitor regulatory developments in other EU countries, seeking additional international collaboration opportunities to expand its global footprint.
