Web3.uk.com covers Web3 news and resources for the United Kingdom, including how UK rules affect people and businesses.

What we believe

The internet works best when people own what they make, choose where their money goes, and understand the tools they use. That was the original promise of Web3, before hype and self-dealing crowded it out. We are here for the version worth keeping: take the good, leave the bad.

What we stand for

  • Clarity over hype. Plain language, real sources, no invented numbers.
  • Choice over lock-in. Tools and options that leave you free to leave.
  • Fair access. An internet where opportunity does not depend on who you already know.
  • Independence. Brego Arts & New Media is self-funded and minority-owned. We answer to readers.
  • Your data is yours. We will never sell your personal data. We share it only when you ask us to, with the partner you choose.

How we keep the lights on

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.
