MiCA Stablecoin Rules Implementation Announcement

MiCA Stablecoin Rules Implementation Announcement

2024-06-03 14:00

This announcement affects only users in the the European Economic Area (EEA)

Fellow Binancians,

On 2024-06-30 (UTC+3), the new MiCA stablecoin rules will come into effect across the European Economic Area (EEA). This will be a first step entering the new regulatory framework and it will have a significant impact on the stablecoin market in EEA. As it is important for all users to understand the impact of the upcoming changes, here are some of the important details about the new rules and how Binance is implementing them.

MiCA Stablecoin Rule Compliance - Product Impacts for EEA Users

From 2024-06-30 (UTC+3), stablecoins will be regulated in the EEA. Several existing stablecoins - such as USDT - may not be regulated and will therefore be subject to certain restrictions. These will be categorized as “Unauthorized Stablecoins.”

These transitional measures aim at allowing EEA users to switch to Regulated Stablecoins while avoiding any market disruption and complying with MiCA stablecoin rules. 

Binance will restrict the availability of Unauthorized Stablecoins for EEA users across its product offerings, starting from 2024-06-30 (UTC+3).  Please note that Binance will not delist any stablecoins until further notice and they will remain available on Binance Convert, Spot Trading and Wallet: 

  • Binance Convert: Convert functions for Unauthorized Stablecoins will be maintained in a “sell-only mode. This means in practice that EEA users will be able to sell Unauthorized Stablecoins for: other digital assets (such as bitcoin or ether), Regulated Stablecoins, or fiat currencies (depending on the availability of fiat channels in one’s jurisdiction). This will allow users to easily switch to Regulated Stablecoins. Buying Unauthorized Stablecoins with Convert will not be possible from 2024-06-30 (UTC+3). 

  • Spot Trading: Spot trading pairs with Unauthorized Stablecoins will remain available until further notice. During the interim period, digital asset trading pairs with Unauthorized Stablecoins will coexist with trading pairs with Regulated Stablecoins.

  • Wallet: Custody and wallet services of Unauthorized Stablecoins will continue. Users will be able to withdraw or deposit stablecoins from or to their Binance wallet. 

General Product Restrictions

Apart from the aforementioned products in Binance Convert, Spot Trading and Wallet, Binance will implement product restrictions across its entire product offering. These restrictions will prevent users from entering into new products or service offerings involving Unauthorized Stablecoins. Please note the specific product impacts beyond this general product restriction are effective by 2024-06-30 (UTC+3), unless otherwise specified below.

  • Rewards

    • Rewards across the platform, for example from the Rewards Center and Campaigns will be changed to BNB, other non-stablecoin tokens or Regulated Stablecoins once available.

    • If users have an existing voucher with Unauthorized Stablecoins, they can still claim it until its expiration date.

  • Referral Commission/Rebate 

    • From 2024-06-24, referral commissions or rebates for Spot and Margin will be paid in BNB. After the commission is generated, it will be calculated and converted into BNB on an hourly basis. Once the conversion is complete, the BNB commission will be deposited into the user's spot account within 6 hours.

  • Spot Copy Trading

    • Spot Copy Trading will cease for EEA users on 2024-06-26, before 23:59 (UTC+3).
