[UK's New Budget Does Not Increase Crypto Tax Rate, Regulation May Tighten] UK Chancellor Reeves did not raise the capital gains tax rate, which had already impacted cryptocurrency investors last year, in the 'Autumn Statement.' Azariah Nukajam, UK Compliance Lead at Gemini, welcomed this, stating that it indicates cryptocurrencies are being treated on par with other asset classes. However, Nukajam noted that recent UK legislative and regulatory announcements, along with this budget statement, show that stricter regulatory and tax transparency requirements will proceed as planned.
