We had the pleasure of co-hosting our Quarterly Member Networking Event with Merkle Science at Shoosmiths, bringing together industry professionals for a deep dive into the UK’s evolving crypto regulatory landscape. A massive thank you to everyone who attended, engaged, and shared insights, including our expert panel—Su Carpenter, Sarah Tomalewicz, CAMS, Natalia Łątka, and Oliver Tonkin—for leading a thought-provoking discussion on:

• The UK’s crypto hub vision—where we stand vs. global peers
• Key regulatory developments, including the FCA’s roadmap and AML frameworks
• What the industry needs from policymakers to drive sustainable growth

One thing was clear from the discussion: while progress is being made, the UK must act with greater urgency to stay competitive with jurisdictions like Dubai, Singapore, and the US, which are making bold moves to attract crypto innovation.

Since 2017, CryptoUK has been at the forefront of these conversations, actively collaborating with our members, regulators, policymakers, and the wider industry to strengthen the UK’s leadership in digital assets. We remain steadfast in our commitment to advocating for a balanced, innovation-friendly regulatory framework—one that fosters trust, ensures compliance, and cements the UK’s position as a global hub for digital assets.
