Finantsinspektsioon just ended the transition period for crypto-asset service providers. Here's what it means for digital asset markets in Estonia.

1️⃣ HM Treasury — £15 billion new funding boost to transform Armed Forces and keep the UK safe
The UK government is injecting new capital into national defense to modernize military technology and enhance territorial capabilities across the country.
This funding boost impacts defense contractors, procurement specialists, and strategic infrastructure partners who are currently operating throughout the region.
Stakeholders should prepare for a surge in procurement tenders and updated security compliance requirements linked directly to these upcoming projects.

2️⃣ Deutsche Bundesbank — Announcement of the basic rate of interest as of 1 July 2026: adjustment to 1.52 %
The German central bank has adjusted the basic interest rate to 1.52 percent with the change coming into force starting tomorrow morning.
This adjustment directly affects financial institutions, corporate lenders, and contract managers who use this specific rate for ongoing interest calculations.
Firms must update their internal systems and legal documentation immediately to reflect the new rate for all relevant upcoming transactions.

3️⃣ Central Bank of Ireland — Central Bank of Ireland takes further steps to safeguard access to cash
The regulator has introduced measures designed to ensure that physical currency remains accessible to the general public and to local businesses.
Retail banks and payment service providers operating within Ireland will face stricter obligations regarding the maintenance of regional cash services.
Organizations should review their branch operations and ATM networks to ensure alignment with these emerging service standards and expectations.

4️⃣ Finantsinspektsioon — End of transition period for crypto-asset service providers
The official transition period for existing digital asset companies to comply with the current national regulatory framework has finally reached its conclusion.
This affects all crypto-asset service providers currently operating in Estonia that have not yet fully secured their updated regulatory licenses.
Market participants must immediately verify their status or risk facing enforcement actions and the cessation of services within the jurisdiction.

5️⃣ CFSB — From July 1: Only licensed companies may offer crypto-assets in the EU territory
New regulations mandating that only licensed entities can provide crypto-asset services across the entire European Union territory come into effect.
The mandate hits all unlicensed digital asset platforms and brokers attempting to serve customers within the Bulgarian market and beyond.
Operators must ensure their licensing documentation is finalized by tomorrow to continue operations under this new pan-European regulatory regime.
