Polish lawmakers on Friday approved a government-backed bill to bring the country’s cryptocurrency market under the European Union’s MiCA framework for crypto asset regulation, following two previous vetoes of earlier versions of the bill by President Karol Nawrocki. According to official parliamentary records, the vote took place during the 57th session of the Sejm in Warsaw on Friday, with 241 lawmakers voting in favor and 200 against the legislation. The approved Bill No. 2529, backed by the Ministry of Finance, grants the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) the power to oversee market participants, impose administrative penalties, and temporarily freeze accounts and transactions.
According to The Block, SIX Group, a leading European stock exchange operator, announced that its Swiss exchange, SIX Swiss Exchange, and Spain’s BME Exchange will bring stock market data on-chain via Chainlink nodes. This collaboration enables smart contracts to directly read market data from both exchanges, facilitating the development of blockchain use cases such as tokenized stock indices, structured products, decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, and prediction markets. The combined market capitalization of the two SIX Group exchanges totals €2 trillion, making this initiative a trusted data source for the global financial ecosystem. Previously, prominent financial institutions—including Deutsche Börse, FTSE Russell, and S&P Global—as well as cryptocurrency companies such as Coinbase, have also launched similar partnerships with Chainlink. Since its launch last year, Chainlink’s DataLink service has been integrated into thousands of decentralized applications and across dozens of blockchains.
