    MiCA (Markets In Crypto Assets) Dissected - Part 2

    MiCA, the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, applies to natural and legal persons engaged in issuance, offer to the public, and admission to trading of crypto-assets, or that provide services related to crypto-assets in the EU. The regulation does not apply to entities and persons that provide crypto-asset services for their parent companies and subsidiaries, national central banks of the EU member states when acting as a monetary authority, or public international organizations. Non-EU firms providing crypto-asset services to EU clients must obtain authorization in the EU. MiCA defines crypto-assets as a digital representation of a value or right that can be transferred electronically, and classifies them into three categories based on risks. CASPs must meet specific requirements based on the type of service they offer and the risks associated with each.

    MiCA’ya Genel Bakış

    Avrupa Parlamentosu, 20.04.2023'te kripto varlık ve piyasalarını düzenleyen MiCA yönetmeliğini onayladı. 27 AB üyesi ülke için geçerli olan MiCA, kripto varlıkları üç kategoriye ayırarak standartlar belirliyor ve kripto varlık hizmet sağlayıcıları için düzenlemeler getiriyor. MiCA'nın amacı, AB çapında tek tip bir kripto varlık düzenlemesi sağlayarak, yasal belirsizlikleri ve rekabet dengesizliklerini azaltmak ve piyasa katılımcılarının AB genelinde faaliyet göstermek için tek bir lisans almalarına olanak tanımaktır. Bu düzenleme, Türkiye'de kripto varlık mevzuatı için de referans alınabilecek önemdedir.

    MiCA (Markets In Crypto Assets) Dissected - Part 1

    European Parliament has finally passed the long debated and much anticipated MiCA, the comprehensive crypto assets and markets legislation on 20.04.2023. Since MiCA is a regulation rather than a directive, it will apply directly across 27 states and achieve maximum uniformity among the EU member states.

    Differences in General Principles of APEC Privacy Framework and GDPR

    The importance of privacy has increased due to the significant increase in data processing methods and activities along with rapid technological developments and globalisation. As a result, many countries and regions have adopted privacy laws to ensure harmony for the protection of the personal data of individuals.
