Poland’s government has reintroduced its rejected crypto bill unchanged, framing it as a national-security necessity despite President Nawrocki’s veto. Critics argue the law exceeds MiCA, threatens civil liberties, and could drive Poland’s crypto sector abroad.

"According to local reports, Prime Minister Donald Tusk framed the legislation as a matter of national security, citing more than 100 entities in Poland’s crypto registry linked to Russia, Belarus, and other former Soviet states. The reintroduced bill contains no modifications from the version Nawrocki rejected, government spokesman Adam Szłapka confirmed. The measure will now return to parliament later this year despite the president’s concerns about excessive restrictions that exceed European Union requirements and threaten property rights. Szłapka declared “not even a comma” had been changed in the new bill."
