Artikel 1 Gegenstand


Summary What does Article 1 of the RTS on non-EU currencies say?

This is the foundational scope article of the Regulation, establishing its core purpose: to set out the methodology for estimating the quarterly average number and aggregate value of daily transactions linked to the use of asset-referenced tokens as a means of exchange within a single currency area.

It directly implements a reporting requirement under Article 22(1)(d) of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA).

The article also extends the application of this Regulation to e-money tokens denominated in a currency that is not an official currency of a Member State, in line with Article 58(3) of MiCA.

Important points:

  • This Regulation applies to issuers of asset-referenced tokens and establishes the methodology they must use to estimate transaction volumes tied to the use of those tokens as a means of exchange.
  • The scope extends beyond asset-referenced tokens to cover e-money tokens denominated in a non-Member State official currency, applied on a mutatis mutandis basis.
  • This article directly builds upon and implements obligations set out in Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA), and cannot be read in isolation from it.
