The UST peg-breaking incident is still casting a shadow of fear and uncertainty over the global cryptocurrency market. The consumers and the financial regulators hailing from the UK are not immune from the stablecoin FUD all the same.

In hindsight, the government is planning to increase the legislative and financial scrutiny for stablecoin projects by the way of BoE to curb liability in the future.
