CryptoUK and U.S. Digital Chamber Form Global Crypto Policy Bloc

Published at 2025-12-09 17:46:02

CryptoUK, the UK’s leading digital asset trade association, announced on Dec. 9, 2025 that it is joining forces with The Digital Chamber (TDC), the largest U.S. digital asset trade body, to build a global policy alliance. The two groups say the initiative will create a unified, cross‑border advocacy platform for the digital asset industry, aiming to streamline engagement with regulators and lawmakers and align positions on core issues such as market integrity, custody, and stablecoin frameworks. The partnership matters because regulatory fragmentation has been a major barrier for crypto firms seeking to scale internationally. By coordinating responses to consultations, sharing research, and promoting common standards, the bloc could amplify industry influence and reduce compliance complexity. Challenges remain — differing legal regimes and political priorities will test coordination — but the move signals a more organized and transatlantic industry approach to shaping the next wave of crypto regulation.
