UK leads Europe in crypto adoption

BCB Group to host presentation and debate the findings

The UK leads the way in Europe for the adoption and understanding of crypto assets, according to the latest research from Web 3.0 advocacy group Adan.

The UK’s pre-eminent position in crypto is one of the key findings from a survey of 7,000 individuals across Europe carried out by polling group Ipsos and consultants Deloitte. The full findings of the research will be the subject of an exclusive breakfast event at BCB Group’s London head office this month (June 11).

Hosted jointly by BCB Group, Adan and CryptoUK, the event is open to leading industry figures, policymakers and other stakeholders and is intended to highlight the UK’s leading position and stimulate debate about the future of the technology.

The research comes at a crucial juncture in the development of crypto in Europe as the EU’s Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA) comes into force and the UK continues to develop its own regulatory framework for digital assets.

Jerome Prigent, Managing Director of BCB Group, said: “I look forward to welcoming attendees to this event and hearing more about the Adan research findings. The insights will be valuable to anyone in our industry and for a company like ours, authorised in both the UK and in the EU, it will be of particular importance.”

Adan is a European association headquartered in Paris and Brussels, representing the interests of 200 professionals and companies from the Web3 sector. It aims to support innovation and adoption of the decentralised web across all sectors of the economy.

CryptoUK is the UK’s leading trade association for crypto and digital assets. With more than 100 member organisations, CryptoUK works closely with government policymakers and regulators to advocate for balanced regulation of the sector.
