Dr. Matthias Lehmann: "Die „MiCAR“ wirft viele Auslegungsfragen auf. Zu ihrer Anwendung bedarf es daher kundigen Rats. Mit Dr. Christian Steiner legt ein renommierter Praktiker einen umfassenden Kommentar vor – nun schon in der 2. Auflage. Es gelingt ihm, viel Licht in den dunklen Dschungel Brüsseler Vorschriften zu bringen." Dr. Bernd Fletzberger: „Ein Muss für Kryptodienstleister, Berater und Aufseher! Dr. Steiner schafft Klarheit im Zusammenspiel von MiCAR und Aufsichtsrecht. Er verbindet fundierte wissenschaftliche Analyse mit seiner jahrelangen praktischen Erfahrung und schafft so einen umfassenden Überblick zu den relevanten rechtlichen Krypto-Themen.“
