OKEx Puts Faith in UK Market Despite Brexit Uncertainty

After launching British Pound (GBP) on its C2C (customer-to-customer) fiat-to-token trading platform, OKEx, a Malta-based world-leading digital asset exchange, visited the United Kingdom and got together a group of technology enthusiasts to discuss the blockchain development in the country at an evening networking event hosted yesterday in London.
During the “mindxchange” session, several crypto leaders attended and started an insightful conversation, specifically on the barriers of adopting cryptocurrencies in the UK. The panelists, including Stephan Ifrah, CEO of NapoleonX, Jack Power, Founder of The Crypto Clubs, Pete Wood, CEO of CoinBurp, Gregpry Klumov, CEO and Founder of Stasis andPhilipp Pieper, CEO and Co-founder of Swarm Fund, pointed that a robust regulatory environment is the key to the next bull run in the digital assets market. As the adoption of blockchain technology is broadening in the UK and across the world, they call for prompt action to speed up getting a regulatory framework in place.
