The United Kingdom is moving towards enacting legislation to regulate stablecoins and crypto staking, aiming to accomplish this goal within the next six months. Economic Secretary to the Treasury, Bim Afolami, emphasized the government's commitment to passing these laws before the upcoming general election during a recent crypto event hosted by Coinbase in London. While details remain scarce, Afolami assured that efforts are underway to expedite the process. This initiative aligns with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's vision to position the UK as a "global crypto hub," fostering an environment conducive to investment, innovation, and scaling within the crypto sector. Despite previous pledges, progress on crypto regulation has been limited, prompting calls from industry players for clearer guidelines. The government signaled its intent to introduce crypto-specific regulations in 2024, including oversight of fiat-backed stablecoins by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
