“The Bank of England’s softer stance on stablecoins does signal a further positive turning point for crypto regulation in the UK.”

He further highlighted the importance of regulatory clarity for digital asset businesses:

“Together, the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority are building a distinct dual perimeter which should greatly encourage digital asset firms to focus on the UK and hopefully not go to alternative jurisdictions like the EU.”
