๐ŸŽ‰Labour Party's landslide victory in the UK general election, folks! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง They didn't mention crypto in their manifesto, but they've previously shown interest in tokenization and the digital pound. ๐Ÿค”

The Conservatives, who've been in power for 14 years, had a clearer stance on crypto. They wanted the UK to be a crypto hub, enacted crypto legislation, and even had plans for stablecoin rules. ๐Ÿ“œ

Labour, on the other hand, supports the Bank of England's digital pound plans. The decision to issue this central bank digital currency (CBDC) will be taken in 2025-2026. But first, Parliament needs to approve the legislation. ๐Ÿฆ

In January, Labour released a plan to make the UK a securities tokenization hub. There's room for them to do more, like putting through needed regulations and enhancing guidance on promotional material for the sector. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

So, what do you think about Labour's victory and its potential impact on the crypto world? Let's discuss in the comments! ๐Ÿ’ฌ #crypto #UKpolitics #LabourVictory
