One of MiCA’s architects said he sees no need to regulate DeFi as the European Commission gathers feedback on the framework’s future.
The European Union should focus on a broader digital asset framework covering real-world assets and tokenization instead of regulating decentralized finance through a second version of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), an adviser at the European Commission said.
The European Commission launched a public consultation on MiCA in May, seeking feedback through Aug. 31.
“I do not believe that [MiCA] is outdated now. That’s my personal opinion, but it does not matter. That’s why we have this consultation,” Peter Kerstens told Cointelegraph during a fireside chat at WAIB Summit Monaco 2026.
