The report, published on January 9, 2018, analyzed crypto assets and their use within the EU, as well as the pan-EU laws that govern them.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/eba.europa.eu\/-\/eba-reports-on-crypto-assets?src=ilaw\">report<\/a>, cryptocurrencies are currently not regulated by the EBA, meaning that consumers in the EU are more susceptible to manipulation and fraudulent activities that have plagued the industry since its conception.<\/p>\n<p>EBA's executive director, Adam Farkas, <a href=\"https:\/\/eba.europa.eu\/-\/eba-reports-on-crypto-assets?src=ilaw\">said<\/a> in a statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The EBA's warnings to consumers and institutions on virtual currencies remain valid.
