On March 14, the European Parliament accepted the Data Act, which regulates the management of intelligent contracts distributed on the blockchain, with 500 votes in favor and 23 towards.

The Data Act does not straight target crypto corporations or tasks, but as a substitute aims to control the movement of information in between digital units. Even so, there have been worries that, if not plainly defined, the provisions contained in the law would threaten the growth prospective customers of the cryptocurrency market in Europe.

As a end result, intelligent contracts are described in Article thirty of the law, which establishes “necessary requirements for data sharing related to smart contracts”.

This stipulation necessitates intelligent contracts to have “strict access control mechanisms,” with the potential to block or terminate transactions when necessary.

Smart contracts also obtain “the same level of protection and legality as contracts established in other areas.”

Natalie Linart, legal counsel to crypto infrastructure company ConsenSys, which is behind the MetaMask wallet, believes Article thirty of the Data Act does not have significantly influence on the cryptocurrency market.

“We discovered that Article thirty only applies to intelligent contracts that circulate information for IoT items, not DeFi applications.

However, hopefully the scope of the regulation will not cover the whole intelligent contract in long term revisions. Imposing stringent specifications on blockchain growth will restrict the probable for progress and make the EU unattractive for programmers.”

The bill, which will be debated in between the European Parliament, the European Commission and the Council of the European Union, need to be accepted by these organizations in buy to come to be law.
