THE UK JUST MOVED CRYPTO MUCH CLOSER TO THE FINANCIAL MAINSTREAM.
The FCA has now published a 97 page crypto perimeter paper that helps define how crypto will sit inside the UK regulated system.
This covers key areas including stablecoins, custody, trading platforms, brokers and staking.
The important dates matter.
Applications for the new regulated activities open on 30 September 2026.
The regime is scheduled to go live on 25 October 2027.
So no, this is not full integration overnight.
But it is the legal and regulatory plumbing being put in place to bring crypto firms into the same framework used across mainstream finance.
That is a very big shift.
The UK is moving from partial oversight and patchy treatment toward a full authorisation model for core crypto activities.
That is what real market structure looks like.
