The UK, Russia, and Australia are making significant moves in cryptocurrency regulation. In the UK, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has announced plans to develop cryptoasset rules, focusing on stablecoins and staking services. The regulations aim to provide tighter safety measures for stablecoins and reduce bureaucratic hurdles for staking services. Meanwhile, Russia has legalized crypto mining, requiring operators to register under government oversight, leveraging its energy reserves to bolster its economy amidst sanctions. In Australia, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has released draft guidance, CP 381, for public feedback. The proposed framework includes licensing requirements for stablecoins, wrapped tokens, and digital asset platforms, with potential "no-action" positions for startups seeking licenses. Additionally, the Albanese government has announced broader cryptocurrency reforms set for release in 2025.
