From 26th April, UK authorities have the right to seize the assets directly from the exchanges and custodian wallet providers. The regulatory norms of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 will be amended first and after the proceedings, it will be established by UK authorities.&nbsp;
This helps in extending the power of the National Crime Agency to impound and seize crypto assets without any further excessive legal procedures. Whenever the company is suspected of being connected to some illicit suspicious activities, the authorities have the right to take any legal action directly.&nbsp;
