Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they plan to introduce minimum age limits for trade and investment in digital currencies.
This question was answered on 12th February 2018
In line with policy on trading and investing more generally, the Government has no plans at this time to put an age limit on trading or investing in digital currencies. The Government recognises the significant benefits that digital currencies and the related technology could bring, as well as potential challenges. The Government is monitoring the situation, and believes any regulation should be proportionate and risk-based.
