The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) plans to introduce a new "gateway" authorization regime in 2026, which will expand the scope of regulation of crypto-asset activities. The framework will cover stablecoin issuance, payment services, lending, and exchanges.
Matthew Long, director of payments and digital assets at the FCA, said the new framework will significantly expand the scope of supervision compared to the previous regulatory approach that only focused on anti-money laundering (AML) compliance. Industry experts pointed out that the regulatory framework may have an important impact on infrastructure building such as layer 2 networks (L2) and cross-chain transactions, and may become a reference for other countries to formulate relevant policies.
