The UK Treasury has decided that coin staking is not a collective investment.
On the 9th (local time), Cointelegraph reported that the UK Treasury specified through a financial law amendment that virtual asset staking, which is required for proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchains such as Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL), is not included in collective investment.
As the UK has proactively recognized staking as a blockchain verification process, attention is focused on whether the United States will follow the UK's precedent.
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) considered staking as a collective investment, such as fund sales, based on the fact that investors' virtual assets are pooled together with those of other investors.
According to this, the SEC imposed an immediate service suspension and a $30 million fine on the virtual asset exchange Kraken for 'unregistered sales' while operating staking services. Since staking is considered a fund, it is judged that financial authority reporting and regulatory compliance are essential.
In the United States, the staking function has also been removed from the Ethereum spot ETF. The SEC interpreted staking as having securities characteristics and demanded the removal of staking-related content as a condition for approving the Ethereum spot ETF.
