Great Britain is aiming at regulating cryptocurrency and the DeFi industry as a whole. Regulators have also proposed to remove references to blockchain from the definition of crypto assets, but they have not clarified how, Walter Bloomberg reports.
In addition to crypto assets, decentralized finances are also in the scope of regulation, but DeFi assets are going to be considered on a "case by case basis" instead of one universal regulatory framework.

According to the announcement, consumer risks are also present on the crypto market.

It is also not quite clear what regulators mean regarding removing the reference to blockchain from the definition of cryptocurrency assets due to the inseparable nature of the technologies.
