The Cardano Foundation submitted a detailed response to the EU's MiCA review consultation, urging policymakers to exclude decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and staking activities from expanded regulatory rules. They argue that applying licensing requirements to non-custodial, protocol-level participation misrepresents these activities and could stifle innovation in Europe. The Foundation distinguishes between direct network participation, which they believe should remain unregulated, and intermediary services that require oversight. The EU Commission's decision on this will impact how DeFi and staking are regulated, potentially affecting compliance costs and market access for Cardano users and developers across Europe. The consultation period closed on September 30, and the Commission's next steps, including possible legislative proposals, will shape the future regulatory landscape through 2027.
