It should also be noted that the EU started with MiCA to ensure regulatory certainty for the cryptocurrency industry. The Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, on the other hand, lays out some things, including new guidelines for grading and issuing cryptocurrencies.
Furthermore, services related to cryptocurrency markets will be regulated. MiCA will, in general, provide regulatory clarity to the crypto industry and may quickly become a model for other countries to follow.

The Importance of EBSI to the Future of the EU
The EU began with MiCA to provide regulatory clarity for the cryptocurrency sector. This latest EU step will present a unified front for future blockchain technology and its rapid expansion across the entire union, giving member countries greater influence over technological and cryptocurrency progress.
The Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) legislation proposed by the European Commission (EC) for 2020 is a major licensing proposal aimed at ensuring financial stability and protecting investors. It should also be noted that in 2018, the European Commission established the European Blockchain Partnership and the European Securities and Markets Institute (ESBI) with the primary goal of developing and delivering blockchain-based public services across the EU.
A transnational initiative, the European Blockchain Service Infrastructure (EBSI), includes all EU member states as well as observers Norway, Liechtenstein, and Ukraine. According to an EU Commission representative, the EBSI “is already subject to a partnership between the European Commission and the European Blockchain Partnership.”
“The EBSI aims to support cross-border public services by leveraging technology in an environmentally friendly manner,” he added. It employs permission blockchain with EU governance provided by the EBP.” As a result of the vote in favor of the Digital Decade file, more people are likely to support the EBSI in the future.
