240s pass Resolution 202... Virtual assets included in Polish sanctioned assets

Poland’s Sejm passed a sanctions bill 240–202 with one abstention, adding crypto assets as defined under the EU’s MiCA framework to the scope of financial assets subject to freezing. The measure, which also covers cash, bank deposits, account balances and securities, does not introduce new crypto trading permissions or apply to all holders; it expands the asset pool authorities can freeze when enforcing sanctions. The vote took place at 1:28 a.m. KST on the 7th, with 17 members recorded as not voting, and covered the government’s Print 3003 together with the committee’s amended report 3251-A. The change matters because it aligns Poland’s sanctions regime with MiCA’s asset definitions, potentially widening the reach of asset freezes for crypto held by sanctioned parties. Next, watch the Senate and presidential stages, and how Polish banks and crypto service providers implement freezes under the revised framework.
