Behind Closed Doors: How the US and UK Plan to Control Crypto’s Future

The United Kingdom and the United States are joining forces to accelerate cryptocurrency adoption through enhanced regulation and international cooperation. UK Finance Minister Rachel Reeves announced plans for a comprehensive crypto regulatory framework aimed at positioning Britain as a global digital asset leader. The initiative, set to align with the pro-crypto stance of the Trump administration, focuses on cracking down on bad actors while supporting responsible innovation. Both nations are expected to unveil significant regulatory reforms in 2025, marking a pivotal moment for global crypto standards.

• The UK and US are collaborating on regulatory frameworks to promote the responsible adoption of cryptocurrencies and strengthen oversight of the industry.

• UK Finance Minister Rachel Reeves stated the partnership aims to support innovation while targeting bad actors, with Britain seeking to become a global leader in digital assets.

Regulatory Fog Threatens Crypto ETF Hopes

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has once again delayed decisions on several major cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund (ETF) proposals, affecting assets like XRP, Ethereum, and Dogecoin. These postponements—impacting applications from firms such as Franklin Templeton, Fidelity, and Bitwise—are stirring market uncertainty and dampening institutional interest. The delays have sparked volatility in the prices of the associated tokens and are raising concerns that prolonged regulatory ambiguity could stall overall crypto market growth. While past SEC timelines suggest eventual clarity, the current inertia is slowing investment momentum and casting doubt on near-term inflows.

• SEC delays key crypto ETF decisions, affecting XRP, ETH, and DOGE, and causing price volatility and waning institutional interest.

• Applications from Franklin Templeton, Fidelity, and Bitwise remain pending, with potential long-term market growth contingent on eventual regulatory clarity.

Wall Street’s Crypto Power Play: BlackRock Pushes Bitcoin Toward $2 Trillion

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF recorded a massive $1 billion inflow on April 29, 2025—its second-largest single-day influx since launching in January 2024—fueling Bitcoin’s price to a local high of $95,400 and edging its market capitalization toward the $2 trillion mark. The move highlights a dramatic shift in institutional appetite for digital assets, with BlackRock CEO Larry Fink leading the firm’s deeper integration into crypto. Analysts, including Geoff Kendrick of Standard Chartered, now project Bitcoin could surge to $120,000 by mid-2025 as institutional momentum accelerates. The development signals a growing perception of Bitcoin as a viable hedge against economic volatility, even amid an evolving regulatory environment.

• BlackRock’s $1 billion ETF inflow boosted Bitcoin’s price to $95,400 and nearly pushed its market cap to $2 trillion, signaling powerful institutional momentum.

• Analysts predict Bitcoin could reach $120,000 by mid-2025, underscoring Wall Street’s deepening role in driving crypto market dynamics.
