CryptoUK, a UK-based cryptocurrency trade association, said it will join the Digital Chamber, a US crypto policy advocacy group, potentially marking a significant cross-collaboration on digital asset regulation between the two countries.
In a Tuesday notice, CryptoUK <a href="https://cryptouk.io/resources/cryptouk-joins-the-digital-chamber-as-part-of-expanded-global-advocacy-network/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">said</a> its team would fall under the Digital Chamber’s umbrella as part of a “unified, cross-border advocacy platform.” Both groups have worked in their respective countries to promote policies favoring the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry, starting with the Digital Chamber in 2014 and CryptoUK in 2018.
“CryptoUK has always aspired to ensure we are driven by policy-led issues, member collaboration, and regulatory engagement,” said Su Carpenter, CryptoUK’s executive director.

The partnership between the two advocacy groups comes as US lawmakers <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/cynthia-lummis-market-structure-markup-before-holidays" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">move forward on negotiations</a> to pass a digital asset market structure bill, aiming to establish regulatory clarity for the industry. In the UK, policymakers <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-uk-digital-asset-task-force-regulation" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announced plans to collaborate</a> with their counterparts in the US to explore crypto laws and regulations.

US-based crypto advocacy organizations, such as The Digital Chamber, have garnered support from former regulators and members of Congress as the Trump White House directs policies toward the industry. Among these groups are the Solana Policy Institute, the Blockchain Association, the Crypto Council for Innovation, and the American Innovation Project.

On Nov. 10, the Bank of England <a href="https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/paper/2025/cp/proposed-regulatory-regime-for-sterling-denominated-systemic-stablecoins" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">released</a> a consultation paper to propose a framework for “sterling-denominated systemic stablecoins.” The move by the country’s central bank marked a step toward the UK seeming to play catch-up to the US, where the government passed a law regulating payment stablecoins in July.
Bank of England Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/england-vows-keep-pace-us-stablecoin-regulation" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">signaled before the publication of the paper</a> that the central bank’s actions were in response to the US advancing stablecoin policies, and it was “really important” to be synchronized on rules.
