Young Platform updates the Smart Trades functionality to ensure a trading environment that is compliant with MiCA regulations. 

The company has decided to modify the pairs in the Smart Trades functionality, migrating from the crypto-USDT pair to the crypto-USDC pair.

With this update, we aim to inform our users about the strategic decisions taken by Young Platform following the entry into force of European Regulation No. 2023/1114 of 31 May 2023 concerning Markets in Crypto-assets (MiCA), effective from 30 June 2024.

These decisions reflect the need to comply with the Italian government’s recent approval of the Legislative Decree of 25 June 2024. This decree aims to align the national regulatory framework with the provisions of the MiCA Regulation and ensure coordination with existing regulations in Italy, particularly the Consolidated Banking Act (TUB) and the Consolidated Finance Act (TUF).

8 July 2024: new Smart Trades strategies with Crypto-USDC pair

Starting on 8 July 2024, Young Platform will implement a significant change in the Smart Trades strategies offered to users, utilising the crypto-USDC pair. Therefore, from 8 July to 15 July, adding new funds to strategies already active or created during this timeframe will not be possible.

This strategic decision is to comply with the MiCA Regulation, which promotes security and transparency in the cryptocurrency sector.

USDC’s adoption as the reference stablecoin in the new Smart Trades strategies is motivated by its growing adoption and complete adherence to the regulatory requirements of the MiCA Regulation. USDC is widely recognised for its stability and regulatory compliance, making it an ideal choice for users seeking safety and reliability in their trading operations.

Young Platform has always placed great emphasis on compliance and protecting the interests of its users. This new implementation represents a further step forward in ensuring a secure, transparent, and compliant trading environment. Our platform continues to evolve to meet the needs of a constantly changing market, offering innovative and regulatory-compliant solutions.

15 July 2024: conversion of USDT to USDC in active Smart Trades

Starting from 15 July 2024, Young Platform will convert all USDT to USDC in Smart Trades strategies activated before 8 July 2024 for free. The user will not incur any fees for this conversion. 

This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to ensuring compliance with regulations and providing an efficient and advantageous service for users. The free conversion eliminates additional costs for the user, facilitating the transition to a compliant and consolidated stablecoin like USDC.

USDT, PAX Gold, and DAI will not be delisted

Young Platform does not plan to delist USDT, PAX Gold, and DAI until further notice. We are actively collaborating with the foundations of these stablecoins to support their compliance with the MiCA Regulation. By the end of July, we will provide updates on the availability of these currencies on our platform.

Moreover, we will closely monitor any regulatory updates or communications from the stablecoin issuers and promptly inform users of relevant news.

Conclusion

Young Platform remains firmly committed to ensuring a safe, compliant, and advantageous trading environment for all users. The new Smart Trades strategies with the crypto-USDC pair and the free conversion of USDT to USDC are concrete steps towards regulatory compliance and protecting users’ interests. We thank everyone for their understanding and cooperation during this transition phase.
