What the law actually says

Is Tesla trading legal in Ireland?

Spot crypto is legal to hold, buy and sell, and the service side runs on MiCAR, which applies directly as an EU regulation; Ireland designated the Central Bank of Ireland as the national competent authority for it through S.I. No. 607/2024, published in Iris Oifigiúil on 12 November 2024, and the regime has bound crypto-asset service providers since 30 December 2024. Ireland is not merely a passive recipient of the EU regime - it is where a large share of it is licensed: Kraken holds its MiCA CASP authorisations from the Central Bank of Ireland and passports them to every EEA state, so an Irish resident buys spot crypto from a provider supervised by their own regulator.

What the contract is

The contract itself does not change by geography: a TSLA perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.
