HMRC has released the framework that crypto exchanges must follow in 2026 as it begins to crack down on digital asset taxes.
What to know:
- Starting January 1, 2026, U.K. crypto exchanges must collect detailed transaction data from users to comply with new HMRC rules.
- The collected data will be used by HMRC to cross-check tax returns and ensure compliance, with sanctions for non-compliance.
- The U.K.'s new guidelines align with the OECD Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework, promoting transparency in the digital asset market.
U.K. resident users of major cryptocurrency exchanges will kick off the New Year with detailed transaction data automatically collected as the country’s authorities prepare to crack down on tax avoidance.
According to the new HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) rules, crypto exchanges operating in the United Kingdom are required to start collecting the full transactional record from Jan. 1, 2026, of all their U.K. customers.

“With platforms set to keep a record of this information from January 1, 2026, ahead of sharing it with HMRC the year after, the tax office will be able to cross-check tax returns against the data they’ve received,” Seb Maley, CEO of tax insurance provider Qdos, told FT.
British tax experts say that this gives crypto users, traders, and investors until the end of 2026 to get their digital asset affairs in order to avoid sanctions.
The new HMRC guidelines align the U.K. with the OECD Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF), which is designed to bring greater transparency to the fast-growing digital asset market and is already being rolled out in the European Union, Canada, Australia, Japan, and South Korea, among others.
Crypto exchanges, classified as "Reporting Cryptoasset Service Providers," must send the information in full detail directly to the HMRC in 2027. That data will enable the HMRC to determine the amount of tax crypto users must pay. The HMRC will sanction non-compliant platforms.
“This marks a major shift in how crypto trading is monitored from a tax perspective,” Maley told FT.

Is Doge Still The Best Crypto Investment, Or Will Pepeto Make You Rich In 2025
The post Is Doge Still The Best Crypto Investment, Or Will Pepeto Make You Rich In 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 18 September 2025 | 13:39 Is Dogecoin actually running out of gas, after making people millionaires overnight? As investors hunt for the best crypto to buy now and the best crypto to invest in 2025, Dogecoin still owns the meme spotlight, yet its upside looks capped according to today’s Dogecoin price prediction. Focus is shifting toward projects that marry community with real on chain utility. People searching best crypto to buy now want shipped products, audits, and transparent tokenomics. That frames the honest matchup for this cycle, Dogecoin versus Pepeto. Meet Pepeto, an Ethereum based meme coin built with live rails, PepetoSwap for zero fee trading and Pepeto Bridge for smooth cross chain moves. By blending story with tools people can touch today, and speaking directly to crypto presale 2025 demand, Pepeto puts utility, clarity, and distribution first. In a market where older meme coins risk drifting on sentiment, Pepeto’s delivery gives it a credible seat in the best crypto investment debate. First, here is why Dogecoin may be fading. Dogecoin Price Prediction Is Dogecoin Losing Momentum Remember when Dogecoin made crypto feel effortless. In 2013, Doge turned an internet joke into money and a movement that welcomed everyone. A decade later the market is tougher and the relentless tailwind is gone, sentiment is choppier and patience matters. With Doge near $0.268, the setup reads bearish to neutral for the next few weeks. If the $0.26 shelf holds on daily closes, expect choppy range trading toward $0.29 to $0.30 where rallies keep stalling. Lose $0.26 and momentum often slides into $0.245 with risk of a deeper probe toward $0.22 to $0.21. Close back above $0.30 and the downside bias is likely neutralized, opening room for a squeeze into the low $0.30s. Beyond the price view, Dogecoin still centers…
