Malta regulator explores bringing parts of DeFi under MiCA framework
2026-06-18 10:44:34
Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) published a discussion paper on how decentralized finance (DeFi) could fit within the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regime, focusing on governance, accountability and what counts as “full decentralization.” The paper notes MiCA excludes services provided in a “fully decentralised manner without any intermediary,” but argues many DeFi projects retain centralized features such as admin keys and interface control, according to CoinDesk. MFSA is seeking feedback on treating decentralization as a spectrum and on requiring audits and risk reviews; responses are due by July 10.
