Hungary's recent electoral upset, which saw opposition leader Péter Magyar and his pro-EU Tisza Party end Viktor Orbán's 16-year rule, could lead to significant changes in the country's cryptocurrency regulations. Magyar's victory, which secured a commanding parliamentary majority, signals a potential rollback of Orbán's stringent crypto policies that imposed strict certification requirements and criminal penalties on exchanges, exceeding the EU's MiCA framework.
The European Commission had previously launched infringement proceedings against Hungary over these measures. With the new government expected to align more closely with EU standards, industry players like Revolut, which suspended services in Hungary during the crackdown, may re-enter the market. This political shift could also influence other EU member states to adhere more strictly to MiCA without additional national restrictions, potentially reshaping the regulatory landscape for digital assets across Europe.
Hungary's Election Upset May Reverse Orbán's Crypto Policies
