#CryptoRegulation Image
📌 Key risks identified are:

1️⃣ Persistent credit risk - Opaque business structures and unsustainable business models leading to default

2️⃣ Market risk - Boom and bust cycles fuelled by leverage and the speculative nature of assets
3️⃣ Liquidity risks - Business models built on maturity & liquidity transformations without appropriate safeguards, resulting in vulnerability to 'runs'

Today, we attended the #FTX hearing by the @EP_Economics in the @Europarl_EN.

It was an interesting discussion, with the underlying question being

"Would #MiCA have prevented the FTX collapse? Will the new rules be enough to address those issues?"

A🧵with key quotes:

1/9
Speakers underlined this is not a #crypto issue, but a human one

"The lack of segregation of user data in the #FTXscandal demonstrates the legislative need for the #EU to apply existing data protection rules to the #crypto market"

MEP @itinagli, Chair of @EP_Economics

2/9
"The #FTXscandal is caused by human behaviour!

It is to the #crypto market what Lehman Brothers represented for the traditional finance industry. Had #MiCA been already in place, the #FTX case should have never been possible"

MEP @DrStefanBerger, MiCA Rapporteur

(2/10) What is #cryptocurrency? ⚡
Cryptocurrency is a #decentralized #digitalasset that exists on the blockchain. 🌐 It is not controlled by any authority but solely belongs to its owner.

#Crypto being decentralized implies that it runs on a peer-to-peer relationship. 🤝
(3/10) There is no need for a third party to intervene in a #transaction; it is based on a peer-to-peer relationship.

The currencies are stored in virtual platforms called #digitalwallets. But why are #cryptocurrencies named like this? 🤔💱

#MiCA was not the only proposal completed last week, as 🇪🇺 institutions also finalised the Transfers-of-Funds Regulation (TFR).

The #TFR is meant to implement the @FATFWatch's #travelrule for transfers of #cryptoassets in the EU.

As always, check our 🧵for details:

1/18
First, a bit of #context:

The original Transfers-of-Funds Regulation was established in 2015 and introduced the requirement for financial institutions to accompany each #transfer of funds with verified information about the originator and beneficiary of the transfer.

2/18
As part of its 2020 Action Plan on preventing #moneylaundering and #terrorism financing, the @EU_Commission put forward a legislative proposal for a recast of the original #TFR text with the main objective of expanding traceability requirements to crypto-assets.

📢#MiCA is complete!

The landmark #crypto regulation sets out uniform 🇪🇺 requirements for offerors of #cryptoassets and service providers (#CASPs) to apply for authorisation in the Single Market.

👀🧵for a full dive on #MiCA and what it means for the #cryptoindustry.

1/22
Even though a better agreement was close last week, 🇫🇷 vetoed it during the 🇪🇺 MS intervention period & raised concerns on USD-denominated #stablecoins used as a "means of #exchange", suggesting a return to their restriction when used for #settlement purposes ❗️

2/22
The compromise was to at least clarify that USD-#stablecoins used for spot #trading would NOT be captured.

The final text was approval by #COREPER yesterday and @EP_Economics will do it on 10/10. Final adoption by Ministers and the Parliament’s Plenary will be end of Oct.

Latest UPDATE on the #TFR (Travel Rule) trilogue:

EU institutions are working to finalise the #TFR text to implement the #travelrule in Europe. Please find below the latest details. The aimed-for deadline for conclusion is still the first week of June.

1/9
Key issues on table:

The provisions introduced by the @Europarl_EN requiring #verification of information for each transfer of assets, the additional requirements applied to transfers to #unhosted wallets and the #blacklist of non-compliant entities.

2/9
In the past weeks, the @EUCouncil has taken onboard the concerns from the blockchain & crypto #industry, as well as those of regulators and competent #authorities (!), that flagged the impracticality and unintended consequences these provisions would have.

1/ Pro-tip for long term investors: Principal Tokens from @element_fi are a good way to long high conviction #cryptoassets at a discount to spot: app.element.fi/fixedrates
2/ How is the cryptoasset offered at a discount?

@element_fi allows users to split the base asset of a *yield generating position* into 2 separate, fungible tokens: The Principal Token and the Yield Token.
3/ At the end of a set term (eg, 6 months) each Principal Token is redeemable for its proportional share of the initial stake, while Yield Tokens are redeemable for the yield generated by the principal over the same time period.

Financial life lessons I wish I learned earlier in life. Mind the downside risk. Lose 20% you have to make 25% to get back to even. Lose 50% you have to make 100% to get back to even. Feeling a bit of a thread here.
1/ It's hard to think about the long term when watching an asset that re-prices itself every millisecond. Write down your investment philosophy. Don't have one, start now. Buy a notebook, if you can't afford one DM me your address. Every day write your investing principles.
2/over time your investment philosophy will take root in your heart and mind. Keep writing though. Don't ever stop. This will be your bible in the darkest moments when you want to throw in the towel.

@CaitlinLong_ @uniformlaws @Prof_CarlaReyes I'm very proud of the work done by the brilliant members of the @uniformlaws Digital Asset Working Group incl. @Prof_CarlaReyes @Andrea_Tosato to create this draft. For the twitterati who don't practice law, you may wonder, what's this? & Is it important? YES. A quick #thread
@CaitlinLong_ @uniformlaws @Prof_CarlaReyes @Andrea_Tosato The proposed new article 12 of the UCC would include rules for commercial transactions of what we’ve termed "controllable electronic records" or CERs. This would include a wide variety of #digitalassets including what we generally call #cryptocurrency along with /2

1/ Our second issue is out.

In this issue, we discuss global labor arbitrage and the #Metaverse by looking at the history of MMORPG gold farming and the future of #playtoearn gaming.

This is done through the lens of @YieldGuild, a Metaverse recruitment agency.

Link/thread 👇
3/ @Its_Falcon_Time refers here to the #Metaverse as a set of digital nations.

We agree with this metaphor.

The #Metaverse with its shared on-chain history, vibrant meme culture, & the developing spatial Webaverse is best understood in this way.

#Cryptoassets going through their first bull are likely to draw down 95-99% in their first bear.
If you think your asset is so high quality it’ll be excluded, look at $ETH’s first bear (2018-20).
Keep these #’s in mind as you gawk at “how rich you are.” If you just hodl, you may end up with 1-5% of what you have at the peak.

If holding BTC, maybe 15-30%.

#California appellate court affirms summary judgment in favor of @coinbase as to claims for #conversion #breach of contract & negligence; related to #coinbase not supporting #bitcoingold fork for its users; since it's precedent in CA, let's dive in /1 ImageImageImageImage
Court ruled that there was no agreement to give Plaintiff #Bitcoingold; there was no "contractual obligation to support or provide services for any particular cryptocurrency." Merger clause barred parol evidence & there was no contractual duty. That's breach of contract /2
Conversion of crypto is a pet issue of mine because it requires the Court to determine that the thing that is allegedly converted (i.e. the civil version of theft) is legally recognized property. Fun Fact- property rights are mostly created by state law. Only 1 state (Wyoming)/3
