Stratiphy Reopens Tax-Free Access to Crypto ETNs for UK Investors
- Stratiphy has launched a new offering allowing UK investors tax-free access to crypto exchange-traded notes (ETNs).
- In October 2025, the Financial Conduct Authority lifted a four-year ban on retail access to crypto ETNs linked to assets like Bitcoin and Ether.
- New purchases of crypto ETNs no longer qualify for standard stocks-and-shares Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) as of the new tax year.
- IG Group’s research indicates the UK crypto market could grow by up to 20% following the relaunch of crypto ETNs.
- Approximately 30% of UK adults are open to investing in crypto through ETNs due to perceived safety and regulatory oversight.
The recent changes in regulations have created opportunities for investors seeking tax-efficient ways to engage with cryptocurrencies through ETNs, which are now more accessible following the FCA’s updated stance.
With around one-third of UK adults considering investments in crypto via ETNs, this shift could significantly impact market dynamics and investor participation. (Source)
