3-line summary

• Austrian crypto platform Bitpanda was fined by Austrian authorities in what is the first enforcement action under Europe's MiCA crypto regulation, according to a Yahoo Finance report.
• Austrian authorities said Bitpanda failed to submit a required cryptocurrency white paper at least 20 working days before publishing it, and circulated marketing communications before the white paper was published, violating MiCA rules.
• Bitpanda said it has since rectified the issue after Austrian authorities raised it and chose a 'swift, consensual conclusion' to the matter.
