🇪🇺 Tether ($USDT) is NOT being made “illegal” in the EU as of December 30, 2024! Here’s what’s actually happening:
💡 What You Need to Know:
Under the new MiCA regulations, providers like Tether must meet compliance standards. However, they have a 6-18 month transition period to align with these rules.
Some exchanges, like Coinbase, are proactively delisting $USDT to avoid potential regulatory penalties. Others are waiting for more clarity before taking action.
If Tether fails to comply within this period, $USDT would become non-compliant—not illegal. However, EU exchanges and services may still delist it to avoid risks.
✨ Opportunity for Alternatives:
This situation opens the door for MiCA-compliant stablecoins, like Ripple’s $RLUSD, to gain traction in the EU market as reliable and regulation-friendly options.
🤔 What’s Next?
Will Tether adapt to these regulations, or will compliant stablecoins like $RLUSD take the lead in Europe? Share your thoughts below!
