A cross-party parliamentary group on digital assets in the UK has launched an inquiry into banking access for the local crypto industry, according to The Block. The review will focus on two issues reported by crypto businesses: the difficulty of opening and maintaining bank accounts, and restrictions imposed by banks on crypto-related transactions. The inquiry centers on access to banking services rather than broader market rules, putting day-to-day operating conditions for crypto companies under scrutiny. The move highlights a specific friction point between traditional banking institutions and digital asset businesses in the UK.
