Golden Finance reports that the UK's financial regulatory body, FCA, plans to implement a cryptocurrency regime by 2026 to address the growing ownership of cryptocurrencies in the country. The roadmap released by FCA indicates that the agency intends to publish a discussion document on market abuse and disclosures by the end of this year and plans to release documents on stablecoins, trading platforms, staking, prudent cryptocurrency risk exposure, and lending by early next year. The regime is set to take effect after the final policy statement is released in 2026. A study commissioned by FCA shows that the holding of crypto assets in the country has increased by 4% over the past two years, with approximately 7 million adults holding crypto assets out of a population of about 68 million.
