FTX’s Hurdles In UK
Recently, the British authorities issued warnings against the use of Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX crypto exchange. The country’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said FTX was offering products and other services without any authorization. This came amid the stepping up of guidelines around this unregulated industry of digital assets by the country’s regulators.
