The UK Treasury is developing rules that will require cryptocurrency companies to comply with a set of standards and be regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Cryptocurrencies will be regulated in a similar way to other financial products under legislation that comes into force in 2027.
UK government officials have been pushing for reforms to the crypto market, which has grown rapidly as a means of investment and payment. Because cryptocurrencies have not been regulated in the same way as traditional financial products such as stocks and funds, consumers in many cases do not enjoy the same level of protection.
The UK government says the new rules will increase transparency in the crypto industry, boost consumer confidence, and help make it easier to identify suspicious activity, impose sanctions, and hold companies accountable. (The Guardian)
