On 16 July 2025, France’s ACPR and AMF released a summary of responses to a public consultation on smart contract certification in decentralised finance (DeFi). The consultation was based on a 2024 report developed by a dedicated Working Group under the ACPR-AMF Fintech Forum. The report addressed technical standards, audit methods, and regulatory pathways for smart contract certification in DeFi settings.

Key takeaways from the responses:

- Broad support for the proposed technical principles, aligned with industry best practices.

- Approval of the audit methodologies explored, with recognition of associated challenges.

- Preference for a voluntary certification framework over mandatory compliance.

While the report does not constitute a regulatory proposal, it reflects an important step toward shaping future EU-level regulation for smart contracts and DeFi systems.
