Bank of England Sets Limits on Stablecoin Holdings to Enhance Financial Stability

The Bank of England (BOE) is taking action to regulate stablecoins in the United Kingdom, aiming to enhance financial stability and mitigate risks related to their growing use. The BOE plans to implement holding limits for individual stablecoin holders, with a limit of £20,000 set for individuals, while systemic stablecoins will face stricter reserve requirements. A consultation on this framework is expected to be published in November 2025.
