The Parliament adopted its own-initiative resolution on digital assets by 390 votes to 86 , with 134 abstentions. The text was carried by a broad centre coalition of the EPP, S&D and Renew, joined by most of the ECR; the Greens/EFA abstained almost in full, The Left and ESN voted against, and the PfE was heavily split between abstentions and opposition. As an own-initiative resolution, the text creates no legal obligations on its own. It sets out Parliament's formal position on the competitiveness and integrity risks tied to digital assets and is intended to signal to the Commission where Members want the EU's approach to crypto-assets and digital finance to head. The single vote on the whole text drew support well beyond the winning majority in raw numbers, but the pattern of abstentions was notable: nearly all Greens/EFA members and a large share of the PfE declined to back the text rather than opposing it outright, while The Left and the ESN voted against. The comfortable adoption reflects agreement across the political centre and much of the right on the resolution's overall direction.
