The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) of the UK has launched a public consultation seeking input on rules governing stablecoin regulation and cryptocurrency asset custody. This initiative aims to strengthen consumer protection and ensure market integrity in the rapidly evolving digital asset landscape. 🗣️ The consultation follows the FCA’s commitment to establishing a regulatory framework for crypto activities, as part of the broader UK government strategy to foster a global hub for innovation. The FCA is seeking industry perspectives, stakeholder insights, and public feedback on how custody services and stablecoin usage should be regulated. 📈 This will help ensure that companies offering these services meet strict operational standards, such as asset segregation, record-keeping transparency, and consumer protection.
