FTSE-Listed IG Plunges Into UK Retail Crypto Trading—Partners With Uphold for June 3 Launch

TradFi giant and FTSE-listed IG launches retail crypto trading in UK with Uphold tomorrow

TradFi’s latest crypto gambit: IG—the London-listed trading heavyweight—just greenlit retail crypto access for UK clients. No more hiding behind ’institutional-only’ excuses.

Uphold handles the dirty work of custody and execution, while IG slaps its brand on the front end. Because nothing screams ’trust’ like outsourcing your crypto infrastructure to a third party.

The timing? Suspiciously convenient. Just as UK regulators sharpen their knives for crypto marketing rules, IG rolls out a compliant on-ramp. How very... strategic.

One question remains: Will TradFi dinosaurs finally learn crypto’s rules—or try (and fail) to rewrite them?
