France Flags 30% of Crypto Firms Unresponsive Before June 30 MiCA Licensing Cutoff
French market regulators warn that around 30% of the 90 crypto firms registered in France have not indicated whether they will seek authorization under the MiCA framework ahead of the June 30 deadline. Companies must inform the AMF if they will apply for a MiCA licence or close down, or they risk losing the right to operate in France and across the EU. Industry voices say compliance costs and banking-style requirements, especially for stablecoins, could push smaller actors out of the European market.
