This area has attracted much financial regulation, and\u003cbr\u003ethe book provides the first and leading comparative account, especially between the EU's and UK's regulatory frameworks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book's key argument is that financial regulatory approaches have been path dependent and limited in terms of regulatory innovation, engaging mostly with crypto service providers who have offchain relationships with crypto asset holders, avoiding many issues pertaining to onchain transactions and activities. The regulatory approaches are an incomplete picture and are limited in providing an enabling framework for the crypto economy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe second edition continues to adhere to the extension of 'regulatory capitalism' to the crypto economy and argues that appropriate and innovative regulation can be enabling for innovative productivities in this alternative economic space. It critically explores the achievements and drawbacks of the primacy of financial regulation for the crypto economy, especially with its current limitations. It also offers proposals and normative perspectives for constructively regulating the crypto economy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eIris H-Y Chiu \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of Company Law and Financial Regulation at University College London, UK.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 December 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHart Publishing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781509985630\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e440\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55340106547340,"sku":"9781509985630","price":157.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781509985630","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
