Starting October 8, 2025, Bitcoin exchange-traded notes (ETNs) will return to London after a four-year ban by the FCA. This reintroduction allows retail investors to invest in cryptocurrencies without directly buying tokens, potentially reshaping the investment landscape.
The reversal of the ban signifies a shift towards innovation in the UK’s financial services, opening Bitcoin to the global fund market. Industry experts predict this could foster sustained demand for Bitcoin, echoing the success of U.S. Crypto ETFs.
While the legalization of Bitcoin ETNs is a positive step, the complex structure of the UK’s investment-advice sector may hinder quick adoption. Experts stress that it will take time for financial advisers to adapt and recommend these new investment products.
