Hope you like the Map (Version 6.0)! Welcome to the version 6.0 of Fintech UK's and CompliReg's (a leading provider of fintech consulting services to crypto asset firms) UK FCA registered Cryptoasset Firms Map.
There are now 41 registered Cryptoasset firms appearing on the Financial Conduct Authority's (FCA) website as at Saturday 31st December 2022.

The FCA register records their registrations effective 21st November, 9th December and 20 December 2022, respectively. As we continue to Map registered Cryptoasset firms, expect to see certain logos appear more than once as several brands will be registering several Cryptoasset firms for different purposes, such as - for example - services for (1) trading and (2) custody. An example of this is in fact Zodia. While Zodia Markets (UK) Limited was registered on 27 July 2022, its affiliate Zodia Custody Limited was registered effective 15 July 2021. At the time we released Version 1, there were 218 (thereabouts) unregistered cryptoasset business listed on the UK FCA's website that appear, to the FCA, to be carrying on cryptoasset activity, that are not registered with the FCA for anti-money laundering purposes.
