Spot crypto is legal to hold, buy and sell, and the service side runs on MiCA, which applies directly as an EU regulation: the KNF describes MiCA as setting the rules for issuing and trading crypto-assets and lists the crypto-asset services - custody, exchange for money or for other crypto-assets, order execution, operating a trading platform, portfolio management, advice - that require a CASP authorisation, while leaving DeFi, unique NFTs and anything already qualifying as a MiFID II financial instrument outside its scope. A Polish resident is served in practice by CASPs passported in from elsewhere in the EEA; Kraken, for example, serves Poland under an Irish MiCA CASP authorisation covering all EEA states.
The contract itself does not change by geography: a PEPE perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.
