On April 20th, the European Union Parliament voted in favor of a draft law concerning the comprehensive pan-European regulation of the crypto industry (MiCA). That’s why the issue of European cryptocurrency market regulation and its subsequent implementation in Ukraine is currently one of the key questions.
Regulating the circulation of virtual currencies in the legal realm is a complex process that requires a comprehensive approach and consideration of various positions. Europe is actively involved in research and development based on blockchain technology, so it is important to exchange experiences in order to develop unified approaches for Ukraine.
During the event, particular attention will be given to the discussion of issues such as the regulation of crypto assets at regional, national, and international levels.
Participants will also present a certification program implemented within the framework of the EU Erasmus+ Program.
The event is organized by the Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University in partnership with the National Academy of Legal Sciences. This event is also part of the Jean Monnet project “European Regulation of the Cryptocurrency Market: Implementation in Ukraine,” grant number 01126839 – ERCM – ERASMUS-JMO-2023-HEI-TCH-RSCH, funded by the European Union. However, the views and opinions expressed belong solely to the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Union or the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
