The FCA is consulting on new guidance as to when cryptoassets would be regulated, along with a new webpage on the topic.
The guidance considers when cryptoassets might be specified investments (or out of scope), payment services and/or e-money services - giving context and examples.
Consultation ends on 5 April 2019.
The Treasury is soon to consult on legislation to extend the FCA's jurisdiction to cover certain cryptoassets; and the FCA aims to publish a policy statement in September, based on its current consultation.
