UK Treasury in a Rush to Bring Crypto Regulations by 2027

2025/12/15 15:40

The UK Treasury has started major work on crypto regulations and plans to bring them in by 2027. Digital assets will be regulated similarly to other financial products, and crypto firms will have to follow rules set by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

Crypto Regulations Essential for Consumer Protection

Ministers in the UK government are looking to overhaul the cryptocurrency market, amid the rapid growth and popularity of digital assets as investment vehicles, as well as a means of payment.

As reported by The Guardian, cryptocurrencies have operated under lighter regulatory oversight, unlike stocks and shares. This has raised some valid concerns regarding consumer protection.

Officials said the proposed crypto regulations will focus on increasing transparency across the crypto industry. Besides, they will improve consumer confidence and the ability of regulators like FCA to detect suspicious activity, enforce sanctions, and hold companies accountable. Speaking on the development, Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, said:

Data from the UK banking industry in October showed that losses from investment scams rose 55% year-on-year. It shows that fraudulent crypto schemes led to the largest share of these losses.

Amid rising concerns about transparency and traceability, ministers are also preparing plans to ban political crypto donations. The authorities cited difficulties in verifying the source and ownership of such funds.

Catching Up With Global Regulations

Top economies across the globe, led by the United States, are working to strengthen their crypto regulations. The Trump administration has already set up a crypto task force in this regard. The UK seems to be working on similar lines to bring its own set of rules for better clarity and functioning of the crypto industry.

At the start of December 2025, the Royal Assent had already recognized digital assets as personal property, and the Treasury seems to take it further from here.

Earlier this month, UK’s FCA also said that supporting and testing safe stablecoin payment systems will be a priority in 2026. As part of its broader pro-growth agenda, the regulator plans to open its sandbox to crypto firms seeking to develop and launch stablecoin products.

According to the official statement, GD Culture Group announced that they have entered into an equity agreement to acquire assets worth $875 million, including 7,500 Bitcoins, from Pallas Capital Holding, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands. GD Culture will issue approximately 39.2 million shares of common stock in exchange for all of Pallas Capital’s assets, including $875.4 million worth of Bitcoin. GD Culture CEO Xiaojian Wang said the acquisition deal will directly support the company’s plan to build a strong and diversified crypto asset reserve while capitalizing on the growing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin as a reserve asset and store of value.
