A new FCA-commissioned study reveals UK crypto ownership dropped to 8% in 2025, down from 12% in 2024. Despite 91% awareness, ownership fell for the first time in four years. Average holdings rose, with more people holding £1,001–£10,000, while under £100 holdings declined. Bitcoin remains top, followed by Ether and Solana. The FCA is pushing for clearer rules, including proposals on trading platforms and custody, aligning with EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation. The UK government aims to finalize crypto rules by October 2027, with a focus on Countering the Financing of Terrorism.
