Compare MiCA with UK FCA, US SEC/CFTC, Singapore MAS, and Hong Kong crypto frameworks. Licensing, stablecoins, and passporting differences.
MiCA is a single EU-wide authorization framework with passporting. The US remains fragmented across SEC, CFTC, and state regimes, with federal stablecoin legislation (e.g. GENIUS Act 2025) developing separately from securities rules.
MiCA is more harmonized across the EU. The UK is building a broader crypto activity regime under FSMA with FCA supervision. Scope and timing differ, but both require authorization for core intermediary services.
No. MiCA authorization covers the EEA only. US, Singapore, Hong Kong, and other jurisdictions require separate licenses or registrations.
