The EU emphasizes that NFT platforms are subject to its new anti-money laundering bill draft

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, policymakers in the European Parliament are negotiating amendments to the text of the EU anti-money laundering legislation to emphasize that NFT platforms or other companies providing services related to NFTs are covered by this regulation. This is different from the scope of the EU's comprehensive regulation on crypto assets (MiCA), which explicitly excludes them.

According to sources, "To fill this gap and mitigate the associated risks of money laundering and terrorist financing, NFT platforms should therefore be included in the horizontal anti-money laundering/CFT framework as a separate category of obligated entities." (The Block)
