The European Banking Authority (EBA) today launched a consultation under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) on draft Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) specifying the methodology to be applied by issuers of asset-referenced tokens (ARTs) and of e-money tokens (EMTs) denominated in a non-EU currency for reporting transactions associated to uses of these tokens “as a means of exchange”. In addition, the EBA also consulted on draft Implementing Technical Standards (ITS) specifying the related reporting requirements under MiCAR. These consultations together with other consultations papers published today form part of the third batch of MiCAR policy products. All consultations run until 08 February 2024.
