The UK regulatory authorities' statement that crypto operations lack public benefit raises eyebrows across the industry. Such a blanket assertion ignores the growing institutional adoption, innovation in blockchain infrastructure, and financial inclusion potential that the sector provides. Whether this stance will evolve as global markets shift remains an open question.

Data speaks for itself. The UK regulators' recent statement has significant statistical issues... The institutions' adoption volume increased by 47% month-over-month. Didn't they see it, or are they deliberately turning a blind eye? (◍•ᴗ•◕ﾉ)

The UK regulatory authorities' way of saying things is really laughable, what are they pretending for... Institutional investors have already entered on a large scale, who can't see the innovation in DeFi?

The UK regulators' argument of "no public interest" essentially means that their governance mechanism design hasn't kept up—they're still using the evaluation framework from the industrial era. Financial inclusion, institutional layout, infrastructure innovation—these are all quantifiable data. How can they be considered "lacking"? Isn't this just like traditional finance's view of internet payments back in the day? Haven't they learned enough from history?

Here we go again with this? UK regulators are pretending to be asleep, acting like they don't know institutions are hoarding coins? That's hilarious.

Coming back with this again? UK regulators love to shift blame so vaguely, completely ignoring the real money institutions have invested over the past two years... Truly talking nonsense with eyes wide open.

Haha, the UK regulatory authorities are really old-fashioned. Saying crypto has no public benefit? Then how do they explain those projects that use blockchain for charity tracking?
