UK Government Releases Draft Crypto Rules

Westminster drops long-awaited draft regulations—because nothing says ’cutting-edge finance’ like a 200-page compliance checklist.

Key Takeaways:

- FSA-style oversight coming to digital assets (because banks weren’t jealous enough of crypto’s growth)

- Stablecoin rules first out the gate—Tether fans, meet your new KYC overlords

- Mining operations face sustainability disclosures—prepare for ’carbon-neutral’ accounting tricks

Closing thought: If these rules actually prevent another FTX-level disaster, it’ll be the first time financial regulation worked as intended since the Magna Carta.
