 Latest Regulatory Moves. What Changed This Week?

ETFTokenization
Tokenized Gold vs Gold ETFs in 2026: Who Holds the Bar
The FCA’s 14 September 2026 call for input asks whether tokenized gold products sit inside the UK collective investment scheme and alternative investment fund perimeter, and an authorized firm cannot promote a product that lands inside it. PAX Gold and Tether Gold both set physical redemption at 430 tokens, around $1.85 million of metal at […]...

Regulatory Capital After a Licensed Company Share Sale
A share sale leaves the licence inside the same legal entity, so its capital requirement carries straight through signing, completion and integration without any reset. Under MiCA, a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) must hold the higher of its Annex IV floor of €50,000, €125,000 or €150,000 and one quarter of the previous year’s fixed overheads, […]...

Regulatory Fit-and-Proper Tests for Buyers and Key Persons
A fit and proper test checks that a licensed firm’s owners and senior staff are honest, competent and financially sound, and every major crypto hub runs one. Under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), buying 10% or more of a crypto-asset service provider, or crossing 20%, 30% or 50%, triggers a regulatory review of […]...

Regulation
Can Stablecoin Issuers Freeze Funds Without a Court Order?
Section 4(a)(6)(B) allows issuance only where the issuer can comply with a lawful order to seize, freeze, burn or block its tokens. Tether burns frozen balances, Circle blocks transfers without burning, and the Paxos contract behind PYUSD can wipe a frozen address. Both major issuers reserve the right to move before a court order exists, […]...

Regulation
Token Listing Due Diligence: The Venue Owns the Paper
MiCA Article 5(2) hands the crypto-asset white paper obligations to any trading platform that admits a token on its own initiative. Article 15 extends civil liability to the operator and its management body, and contractual exclusions have no legal effect. Article 76 bars assets that hide holders behind an anonymization function. Gotbit’s founder forfeited around […]...

Tokenized Deposits vs Stablecoins: Three Ledgers, No Bridge
No bank’s deposit token reaches another bank’s ledger yet. The Clearing House targets live cross-bank transactions for the second quarter of 2027. The FDIC’s proposed rule makes a tokenized deposit a deposit under the FDI Act and leaves stablecoin holders without pass-through insurance. The Bank of England dropped individual holding caps and set a £40 […]...

24/7 Tokenized Asset Trading: 0.55% on Weekends
Weekends drew 0.55% of volume on the largest tokenized US equity platform through May 2026, against 52% inside US market hours. Atomic settlement removes multilateral netting, and every weekend trade has to be prefunded in cash that clears without a bank. The Bank of England proposes Sunday CHAPS settlement no earlier than 2029. Nasdaq’s tokenized […]...

Deutsche Bank secures MiCA authorization
Deutsche Bank has secured authorization under the EU's MiCA framework in Germany to provide crypto-asset custody and transfer services. The move comes as the bank prepares to launch digital-asset custody for institutional and corporate clients, initially supporting Bitcoin, Ether, USDC, EURC and EURAU. Deutsche Bank expects its first clients to go live in 2026, subject to completion of the applica...
