The CSSF published new Commission Delegated and Implementing Regulations related to the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) on 22 July 2026. These regulations establish technical standards for preventing market abuse, reporting templates, and guidelines for cooperation between competent authorities.
The regulations rely on MiCAR (Regulation (EU) 2023/1114), particularly addressing the requirements for crypto-asset service providers and issuers of asset-referenced tokens and e-money tokens.
The new regulations apply to crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) and issuers of asset-referenced tokens (ARTs) and e-money tokens (EMTs).
The CSSF expects compliance with the new technical standards and guidelines to begin by 30 June 2024, particularly for ART and EMT activities.
