Spain confirms MiCA's transition period will not be extended; unlicensed crypto platforms must exit the market starting in July.
According to Foresight News , the Spanish Securities Market Commission (CNMV) has clarified that it will not extend the EU's MiCA regulatory transition period. Crypto platforms without a CASP license must cease operations after July 1, 2026. The regulations require these platforms to only conduct asset transfers and account closures, and to properly handle customer fund migrations. The CNMV emphasized that it will strictly enforce this rule and maintain consistency with the EU regulatory framework. After the new regulations are implemented, only licensed institutions can provide crypto services such as trading and custody in the EU, which is expected to accelerate industry compliance and market consolidation.
Spanish regulators: There will be no extensions or exemptions during the MiCA license transition period.
According to a Foresight News report, Carlos San Basilio, president of Spain's market regulator CNMV, stated on Friday that the regulator will not grant any extensions or exemptions to crypto companies that fail to obtain an EU MiCA license, including large platforms like Binance. Crypto companies are required to obtain a MiCA license by the end of June or face expulsion from the EU market. San Basilio stated that the regulator is in close communication with unauthorized companies to ensure an orderly exit. Regarding Binance's situation, San Basilio acknowledged that the challenge is greater for platforms with millions of European users, stating that the regulator is monitoring how such platforms transfer customer assets and cash to other service providers while simultaneously protecting investor rights. He stated that regulators are currently more focused on how the situation will evolve after the transition period ends and how the market will adapt to the new environment, which is why they are maintaining communication with unlicensed entities. The CNMV's primary task is to ensure client protection during the transition period, requiring relevant companies to clearly explain their exit plans. He added that investors who conduct new transactions on unauthorized platforms will no longer enjoy the protections under the MiCA framework. Currently, the implementation of MiCA is the responsibility of each member state, but there are proposals suggesting expanding the regulatory powers of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) in the future.
