๐Ÿš€ 21Shares Urges ESMA To Standardize Crypto Regulations For UCITS Funds

According to PANews, on October 7, crypto investment firm 21Shares called on the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) to establish standardized regulatory rules for including cryptocurrencies in Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities (UCITS) funds. The company highlighted the current lack of consistency, which has led to confusion among retail and institutional investors across Europe. For instance, Germany and Malta permit UCITS funds to include cryptocurrencies, while Luxembourg and Ireland do not.

Mandy Chiu, Head of Financial Product Development at 21Shares, explained that this fragmented approach limits retail investors' ability to fully leverage cryptocurrencies. She added, 'By providing a consistent set of rules across Europe, ESMA can open new avenues for investors to diversify and enhance their portfolios in a regulated environment designed to protect investors.' Chiu also noted that clear and consistent regulations would help stabilize the market while promoting the growth of the cryptocurrency industry.

As a result, 21Shares is urging ESMA to develop comprehensive guidelines that would allow all EU member states to indirectly invest in cryptocurrencies. According to 21Shares, this would protect investors and broaden the channels for cryptocurrency investment. It is noteworthy that 21Shares' call for regulatory clarity comes as ESMA reviews feedback from its recent consultation on including new asset classes, such as cryptocurrencies, in UCITS funds.

๐Ÿš€ Copper Seeks New CEO As Dmitry Tokarev Steps Down

According to CoinDesk, Copper, a cryptocurrency custody firm, is in the process of interviewing candidates to replace its current CEO, Dmitry Tokarev. Tokarev, who co-founded the company in 2018, is stepping aside from his role as CEO to take on a founder's role within the company. Despite stepping down, Tokarev will remain significantly involved in the business and retains a substantial shareholding in the firm.

The company, which has former U.K. Chancellor Philip Hammond as its chairman, has not commented on the ongoing search for a new CEO. A spokesperson for Copper stated, "We do not comment on market rumours or speculation." This leadership change comes amid other recent executive departures. Last month, Boris Bohrer-Bilowitzki, a founding partner and chief commercial officer, left Copper to become the CEO of blockchain firm Concordium. Additionally, Mike Milner, who served as the global head of revenue for five years, also departed to join Concordium.

Tokarev has led Copper since its inception, guiding the institution-focused digital asset storage firm through its formative years. He holds a degree in Risk Management and Financial Engineering from Imperial College, London. The search for a new CEO marks a significant transition for Copper as it continues to navigate the evolving landscape of digital asset custody.

๐Ÿš€ Tether Surpasses 350 Million Users Marking Decade Of Growth

According to Cointelegraph, Tether, the company behind the USDT stablecoin, announced on October 7 that it had surpassed 350 million users, just 10 years after its launch in 2014. The stablecoin issuer reported a 24% increase in user count over the past 12 months, indicating that it had approximately 282 million users in October 2023. In 2022, Tether had around 141 million users, showing significant growth in a short period.

While Tether is not the first stablecoinโ€”BitUSD and NuBits hold that distinctionโ€”it currently has the highest market capitalization among all stablecoins. According to CoinMarketCap, Tether's market capitalization stands at $119.6 billion. Tether's substantial holdings of U.S. Treasuries further strengthen the dollar's global influence, solidifying USDโ‚ฎ as a trusted digital representation of the world's reserve currency. As of its Q2 2024 Attestation, Tether had direct and indirect exposure to over $97 billion in U.S. Treasuries, making it one of the top 20 largest buyers of U.S. Treasury bills, surpassing countries like Germany, the United Arab Emirates, and Australia.

Cointelegraph also reported that Tether is celebrating its 10th anniversary and will soon launch a documentary about its journey over the past decade, featuring interviews with people whose lives have been affected by the stablecoin. The majority of Tether's 350 million users appear to have joined in the past few years, indicating accelerating adoption rates. To put this milestone into perspective, a AAA study from 2024 estimated there are more than 560 million cryptocurrency users worldwide, while the 2023 AAA report showed around 420 million users globally.
