Internal Crypto-Assets Task Force

European Central Bank (ECB).

(ICA-TF).

The ICA-TF is an internal task force of the ECB, established to develop a common understanding of crypto-assets and assess their potential impact on some of the ECB's core areas of responsibility: monetary policy, financial stability, payments and market infrastructures.

“Our aim is to build a collective capability to understand, monitor and manage crypto-assets in the ECB. We need to get familiar with the underlying technology, analyse the use cases and see how they fit into the current regulatory framework.”

Mehdi Manaa, Deputy Director General of Market Infrastructure and Payments, and Chair of the ECB Crypto-Assets Task Force
