UK lawmakers vote to recognise crypto as a regulated financial instrument
2022/10/29 13:49
The House of Commons of Parliament met on Tuesday for a line-by-line reading of the proposed Financial Services and Markets Bill, which broadly covers the UK's post-Brexit economic strategy. Lawmakers considered a list of proposed amendments to the bill, including one proposed by MP Andrew Griffith to include crypto-assets within the scope of regulated financial services in the country.
The draft bill already includes measures to extend existing regulations to payments-focused stablecoins, which are cryptocurrencies pegged to the value of other assets such as the US dollar or gold.
