ESMA, which supervises compliance with the MiCA regulation in Europe, stated that providing custody and transfer services for non-compliant stablecoins does not violate the new European laws on cryptocurrencies. These services do not constitute a public offering or a request for admission to trading of non-compliant reference tokens or electronic money tokens.

ESMA has emphasized that European crypto-asset service providers (CASP) should prioritize the limitation of services that facilitate the acquisition of non-compliant assets. The agency reiterated that CASP can maintain “sell-only” services until March 31 to allow investors to exit their bull or bear positions.
