🇬🇧 UK Crypto Update: New "Rules of the Road" 📅
The UK is officially shifting gears to become a global crypto hub. The FCA has launched three major consultations to bring crypto assets under the same regulatory standards as traditional finance.
What’s changing?
Trading & Exchanges: New standards to ensure platforms are safe and reliable.
Market Integrity: Tougher rules to stop insider trading and manipulation.
Staking & Lending: Clearer risk disclosures so you know exactly where your assets go.
Stablecoins & DeFi: Specific oversight to protect users and promote innovation.
Why it matters: Chancellor Rachel Reeves says this provides the certainty firms need to invest and grow in the UK while "locking out dodgy actors."
📅 Deadline: Feedback is open until 12 February 2026, with the full regime expected to go live in 2027.
The UK is leveling up—building a safer, more transparent future for Web3. 🚀
