Summary
Auditchain's response to the FCA's Consultation Paper CP26/13, Cryptoasset Perimeter Guidance (April 2026), which sets out proposed guidance on the scope of the new regulated cryptoasset activities taking effect 25 October 2027. The submission answers each of the consultation's six questions and adds architectural observations on how the new perimeter interacts with adjacent UK regimes — the Critical Third Parties regime under section 312L of FSMA, the Bank of England's proposed regime for sterling-denominated systemic stablecoins under Part 5 of the Banking Act 2009, and the HMRC Cryptoasset Reporting Framework under SI 2025/744. It maps each section of the BNP disclosure framework to the UK statutory, regulatory, and perimeter-guidance provisions it engages. The consultation closes 3 June 2026, with final guidance expected in September 2026.
