New Rules on Stablecoins and Staking

Afolami stated that the government is “pushing very hard” to pass legislation on stablecoins and staking services for crypto assets. He wants to see secondary legislation approved by lawmakers in the next 6 months.

Broader Crypto Rules Still Pending

While rules for stablecoins and staking may come soon, broader legislation to regulate crypto exchanges is still in limbo. The UK government has voiced plans for comprehensive oversight of the crypto market, but firm rules have yet to emerge.

The Pressure to Regulate Before Elections

The push for crypto rules comes as the UK faces a general election. The government wants to deliver on regulatory proposals ahead of voters going to the polls. Crypto regulation has dragged on, and officials seem eager to show progress.

Passing new laws on stablecoins and staking would mark a significant step forward in crypto oversight. But major questions around exchange regulation and consumer protection remain unresolved. The coming months will test if UK policymakers can turn promises of robust crypto governance into reality.
