Bitcoin (BTC) and to cryptocurrencies A new move came from England, which adopted a cautious approach towards it.
England’s National Crime Agency (NCA)wants to set up a new cryptocurrency to fight against crypto scams in the UK.
Because the National Crime Agency stated in its 2022 report on crypto money scams that crypto attacks have reached a total of 3 billion dollars worldwide.
Finding this figure too much, the British Criminal Agency published a job posting for this unit on the government website while rolling up its sleeves to establish a new unit.
The new unit to be created according to this posting “Crypto Cell” was named.
NCA, “to the new project that will create a dedicated cryptocurrency and virtual assets team” He stated that he is looking for civil servants with expert experience in the sector to participate.
Chris Lewis-Evans, a manager at the NCA, said the new team will be at the forefront of protecting the UK from cybercrime.
While the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority and Central Bank have described cryptocurrencies as a new gateway for risky assets and fraud, the government has taken steps to embrace the crypto industry in 2022.
In April, then-prime minister Rishi Sunak said he wanted the UK to become a crypto hub.
