Brego Arts & New Media is independent, minority-owned and self-funded. No investors, no venture money, no one to answer to but our readers.

We are here for the original promise of Web3: an open, egalitarian internet where people have real choices in how they bank, pay, send money and own what they make. Somewhere along the way that vision got crowded out by self-dealing and grift. Our work is to keep the good, leave the bad, and build the version worth finding.

Everything we publish is free to read and will stay that way. If our work has been useful to you, support keeps a shoestring operation running: the servers, the research, and the independence. It also backs the projects closest to us, including a green technology invention in development, a five-cat rescue, and bringing filmmaking to Western Massachusetts.

The UK is regulating crypto step by step through the Financial Conduct Authority rather than banning it.

Regulation

The FCA supervises financial firms in the UK. Crypto businesses must register with it for anti-money-laundering purposes.

Financial Conduct Authority

Since October 2023, crypto adverts aimed at UK consumers must follow FCA rules, including clear risk warnings.

Financial promotions

Before using a crypto service, search the FCA register to see whether it is registered or authorised.

HMRC treats most personal crypto gains as subject to Capital Gains Tax. Keep records of every purchase and sale.
