ESMA orders EU crypto firms to stop non-MiCA stablecoin services

ESMA directed national regulators to require firms to manage remaining exposures by Jan. 8, 2027, and warned that MiCA-authorized providers must cease related services.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Regulation

The European Securities and Markets Authority has urged EU crypto firms to stop providing services tied to stablecoins that are not compliant with the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation framework, Cointelegraph reports.

ESMA said national regulators should require authorized crypto-asset service providers to address remaining exposures to non-compliant stablecoins as soon as possible, but no later than Jan. 8, 2027.

Cointelegraph adds that the deadline gives firms a three-month window to bring existing stablecoin exposures into compliance or exit the affected services.
