European Commission weighs separate EU staking regime
- —The European Commission is checking whether MiCA is sufficient for staking via intermediaries
- —Solo staking does not fall under separate MiCA requirements
- —ESMA: a service cannot stake client coins purely for its own benefit
- —Liquid staking TVL reached $44 billion, 80% of it on Ethereum
Why it matters: A new regime could require intermediaries to report and apply controls, strengthening staking concentration among large licensed players.
