#EUPrivacyCoinBan Europe Tightens Its Stance: Approval of a Ban on Privacy Coins
The European Parliament has approved a regulation that bans the use of privacy-focused cryptocurrencies, such as Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC), within regulated services in the European Union. The decision, which aims to enhance anti-money laundering measures, has sparked a strong reaction in the crypto community, which defends privacy as a fundamental pillar of decentralization. Investors and projects will need to adapt to this new regulatory landscape, intensifying the debate between security and privacy in Europe.
