The European Union is consulting on whether developers of noncustodial Bitcoin wallets should require certification before releasing their software publicly. This review is part of a broader assessment of the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), focusing on open-source development, self-custody, smart contracts, and decentralized services. The consultation does not change current MiCA rules but will inform the European Commission's report due by June 30, 2027. The outcome could impact how self-custody tools operate across the EU.
