EU mulls expanding MiCA to cover stablecoins issued by non-EU firms

The European Union is reported to be considering revising its Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation, or MiCA, to extend its scope to stablecoins issued by non-EU companies. The discussion is aimed at clarifying regulatory standards for U.S.-issued stablecoins within EU member states following U.S. stablecoin legislation. The EU is also considering adding MiCA rules covering tokenised payments and deposits, with the proposed amendments expected to be reviewed in 2027.
