The European Commission rejects these fears, considering them exaggerated and insists that the current regulation (MiCA) is sufficient.

The conflict is based on the struggle for control over financial flows in the digital age.

The EU seeks to maintain economic sovereignty while the United States strengthens its influence through technologically advanced dollar assets.

🔼 Bernstein named five «fundamental catalysts» for the growth of cryptocurrency (original)

Bitcoin showed better stability than stocks against the background of market turbulence caused by U.S. tariff policy - a decrease of 10% since the beginning of the year against 16% for Nasdaq.

The main catalysts for cryptocurrency growth:

1. Continuation of BTC purchases and capital stability:
✧ Institutional demand remains strong despite recent adjustments.
✧ The outflow from Bitcoin ETF in February and March was ~$4b, but in April sales decreased.
✧ Approximately 80 companies around the world are already using Bitcoin as a backup asset.

2. New purchases within the framework of «Strategic Bitcoin Reserve»:
✧ Possible expansion of BTC reserves by the U.S. government.
✧ Ideas of buying Bitcoin through revaluation of gold certificates or issuance of bonds secured by BTC are discussed.

3. Adoption of the crypt by traditional banks:
✧ Growing integration of cryptocurrencies into the traditional financial system.
✧ Banks use stablecoins for international transfers and introduce crypto services (asset storage, capital management, trade).

4. Regulatory progress on stablecoins:
✧ The law on stablecoins is expected to be adopted in 2025.
✧ This can accelerate their spread in banks and fintech companies, especially for payments and cross-border transfers.

5. Investments from major financial players:
✧ Brokers and asset managers are actively investing in crypto infrastructure.
✧ Platforms like Robinhood and Coinbase promote tokenized securities and settlements in stablecoins.
