Impact of Future DeFi Regulation in Europe

by Giorgi Kostiuk

2 years ago


The European Commission is currently evaluating the decentralized finance sector and considering implementing new regulations that may affect non-decentralized protocols in Europe. The upcoming report, expected by December 30, 2024, will assess the decentralized finance market's feasibility for specific regulatory measures. Some concerns have been raised about the legal implications and viability of certain crypto projects under potential new regulations. MakerDAO's Rune Christensen and XReg Consulting's Nathan Catania have expressed thoughts on how the upcoming rules could impact DeFi interfaces and applications. The evaluation criteria for determining decentralization and the key factors that regulators might consider are of significance in assessing the impact of the new rules. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF) is also exploring potential categorization of individuals or entities controlling DeFi arrangements as Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs), which could further complicate the regulatory landscape. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the specifics of the new regulations, the DeFi sector has experienced significant growth over the years, as shown by the increase in total value locked (TVL) in DeFi protocols. The evolving nature of DeFi activities and the underlying technological complexities present challenges in defining and regulating decentralized finance.
