The Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (DFSA) has announced its intention to ban unregulated Bitcoin wallets in the country. 
According to DFSA, this move is triggered by concerns about activities conducted on unsupervised platforms within the crypto sector. The authority emphasizes that all crypto platforms and service providers, including interface providers and mobile app developers, must be regulated to operate legally in Denmark.

 DENMARK TO ABOUT TO BAN BITCOIN WALLETS We have finally reached this point. In the latest DeFi guidance of Danish FSA, the regulator goes too far: The guidance tries to capture everything in crypto regulation, including your Bitcoin wallet, using "interface" argument. DFSA says… <a href="https://t.co/F7jFuLhNqC" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/F7jFuLhNqC</a>— Mikko Ohtamaa (@moo9000) <a href="https://twitter.com/moo9000/status/1805917740240158766?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">June 26, 2024</a>

Under these new guidelines, crypto exchanges and trading platforms would be required to obtain regulatory approval in Denmark before offering Bitcoin wallets, decentralized exchange interfaces, or any other crypto-related products to Danish customers.&nbsp; 
Earlier this month, the <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/06/14/eba-issues-guidelines-for-eu-crypto-token-issuers/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2024/06/14/eba-issues-guidelines-for-eu-crypto-token-issuers/" rel="noreferrer noopener">European Banking Authority (EBA) released a draft</a> of regulatory technical standards (RTS) for prudential issues under MiCA regulation, including revised own funds requirements, changes in liquidity provisions, and stringent recovery plans for crypto-asset issuers with a focus on stablecoins pegged on the US Dollar. 
However, the nature of these regulations has sparked debate within the cryptocurrency space, as Mikko Ohtamaa, a crypto public figure, expresses his concerns that such strict regulations may hinder innovation and potentially take digital assets out of the market. 
“While the intentions of DFSA might be good, this kind of overregulation does not help anyone. Trying to force everyone to be a regulated intermediate in a peer-to-peer world sounds cool, but you might as well be honest with your talking points and say “In reality we want to ban all cryptocurrencies, we are just sneaky about it” because this is the outcome”
