Hello, I am a bit confused about the legality of cryptocurrencies in the UK. Could you please enlighten me on this matter? I understand that cryptocurrencies are digital assets that use encryption techniques to secure transactions and control the creation of new units. However, I am unsure if they are recognized as legal tender in the UK or if there are any specific regulations governing their use. Could you please clarify this for me? Thank you for your time and assistance.
