欧盟（EU）计划设立第六个“反洗钱机构”，专门负责监管加密货币行业。
虽然加密资产监管市场和有争议的资金转移监管受到了加密货币行业的大部分关注，但它们只是欧盟反洗钱 (AML) 政策的一小部分，这些政策将产生重大影响对所有金融机构。
欧洲理事会、欧盟委员会和议会正在为加密货币创建一个新的监管机构，该机构将对该行业拥有权力。
欧盟正在考虑建立一个新的加密货币监管组织。
据称，欧盟正在创建第六个“反洗钱机构”或 AMLD6，该机构将直接控制加密货币行业最近的报道 .
去年 7 月，欧盟委员会公布了其关于 AMLD6 或第六指令 AML/CFT 的提案。上个月，欧洲理事会公开了其版本。欧洲议会将在当前的 8 月休假后对其进行讨论。这三个机构将在各自通过自己版本的立法后开始所谓的三方对话。
建立欧盟范围内的反洗钱监管机构是新立法的关键组成部分。关于这样一个机构的必要性及其直接控制欧盟加密资产服务供应商的要求似乎几乎没有争论，尽管立法机构仍需要讨论。
AMLD6 显然将受托监督加密服务提供商，尤其是那些被视为“高风险”的服务提供商，这与早期的反洗钱法规不同，后者仅为欧盟国家提供收集和共享信息的框架。因此，预计监管机构将限制区内司法套利的可能性。

以下是议会简报中对新系统的描述：
“欧盟层面的监管由中心辐射模型组成——即欧盟层面的监管机构负责直接监管某些金融机构 (FI)，间接监管/协调其他金融机构，以及监管非金融机构的协调角色部门作为第一步。”
加密资产市场和资金转移法不仅适用于加密业务，而且适用于区块中的所有金融机构，其重点将与 AMLD6 不同，后者将有不同的侧重点。
欧盟对加密法采取了严格的方法。近日，欧洲议会投票 支持反匿名法规，这些法规会增加非托管钱包和交易所之间交易的成本、难度甚至不可能。即使禁止工作量证明挖矿的法案被立法机构否决，欧洲中央银行仍预计出于环境问题最终会实施此类禁令。
对于欧盟来说，这个全球性组织将标志着一个重大变化。 2015 年和 2018 年的反洗钱指令——尤其是第四条和第五条——规定了成员国收集和提供特定数据的要求，包括有关公司受益所有权的详细信息。
实施的持续时间将取决于欧洲议会之间的谈判以及随后与委员会的三方对话。在法规完全实施之前还需要很多年，包括 AMLA 的人员配置。然而，对于这样一个监管机构的到来，似乎没有什么问题。
