📣Crypto News Flash! The European Banking Authority (EBA) has unveiled a new package of technical standards and guidelines for crypto-assets. The package, which is as comprehensive as a Swiss Army knife, provides guidance for asset-referenced tokens (ARTs) and e-money tokens (EMTs) across Europe. Think of ARTs as tokens backed by assets like real estate or commodities, while EMTs are like stablecoins, pegged to fiat currencies. The EBA is setting minimum percentages for asset reserves and limiting issuers’ concentration of highly liquid financial instruments. All digital asset service providers must comply by July 1, 2026. So, better start reading those guidelines! 😉
