According to an exclusive report by Euronews, the European Union is preparing to revise its Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework in 2027. The planned revision would broaden the rules to cover issuers based outside the EU and deepen the regulation's scope.

The move comes as US President Donald Trump's supportive stance on stablecoins and digital assets raises new regulatory questions. EU officials argue the framework needs to keep pace with global developments.

MiCA is known as one of the first major regional frameworks to set comprehensive rules for crypto-assets. The revision process will take shape after consultations with industry representatives and member states.
