The post Malta Opposes EU Crypto Centralization appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Malta has warned that the European Union’s plan to centralize cryptocurrency oversight under the European Securities and Markets Authority could drive crypto firms to relocate to the United States, the United Arab Emirates, and Asia.
