UK Recognises Crypto as Property Under New Law

UK Recognises Crypto as Property Under New Law

The post UK Recognises Crypto as Property Under New Law appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK has enacted the Property (Digital Assets etc.) Act 2025, formally recognising crypto assets as a new category of property. The legislation introduces a third type of personal property — digital assets, a class that includes cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and other tokenised digital items. The Act clarifies that digital items can qualify for property rights even if they do not fall under traditional legal categories such as “things in possession” or “things in action.” This gives courts a clear framework for handling disputes involving crypto assets, something previously determined only through individual cases. The law took effect on December 2 and applies to England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, with the goal of modernising property legislation for the digital economy. Industry association CryptoUK called the Act “an important step” that enhances user confidence and strengthens the legal foundation of digital assets in the country. Its experts added that the UK has a genuine opportunity to set a global benchmark for crypto and stablecoin regulation, but warned that policymakers will need deeper engagement with industry participants to achieve this. Key Impacts of the Digital Asset Property Category litigation becomes easier in cases of fraud, lost access, and ownership disputes; crypto assets gain a clear legal basis for inheritance procedures; exchanges, custodians, and institutions receive stronger legal backing; the UK positions itself competitively amid accelerating regulation in the US and EU. The new law is part of a wider transformation of the UK’s digital asset strategy. In September, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said it would allow crypto firms certain exemptions from traditional financial rules, acknowledging that existing frameworks do not fully fit digital assets. At the same time, the regulator plans to strengthen cyber-resilience standards following the high-profile Bybit incident. 2026 UK Crypto Regulations: What Web3 Startups Should Know.

UK Passes Bill Recognizing Crypto As Property

UK Passes Bill Recognizing Crypto As Property

The post UK Passes Bill Recognizing Crypto As Property appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The United Kingdom has officially written crypto into its legal framework as a distinct form of property. On Tuesday, the Property (Digital Assets etc.) Act 2025 received Royal Assent from King Charles III, completing its passage through Parliament and creating a third, legally recognized category of property specifically for digital assets. The act passed both houses without amendment. The new classification places assets such as bitcoin, stablecoins and NFTs into a bucket separate from traditional “things in possession,” like physical objects, or “things in action,” like contractual rights. Policymakers say the reform was needed to modernize property law for the digital era. “A third category of property now exists, and it finally gives legal protection to the sats you hold,” said Susie Ward, CEO of Bitcoin Policy UK. Her group’s Chief Policy Officer, Freddie New, called the act potentially “the biggest change in English property law since the Middle Ages.” The reform stems from a 2023 recommendation by the Law Commission, which argued that digital assets did not fit neatly into existing legal categories. The bill was introduced in the House of Lords in September 2024 before moving swiftly through Parliament. While U.K. courts had already been treating crypto as property in rulings over the past several years, the approach relied on case-by-case judgments.  Crypto’s ‘clearer legal’ footing Trade association CryptoUK said codifying the principle in statute offers much clearer legal pathways in matters involving theft, fraud, insolvency and estate planning. “This gives digital assets a much clearer legal footing — especially for things like proving ownership, recovering stolen assets, and handling them in insolvency or estate cases,” CryptoUK said in a statement on X. Lawmakers also framed the legislation as a boost to consumer and investor protection. “By recognizing digital assets in law, the U.K. is giving consumers clear…
