We’ve sent an open letter to Lucy Rigby, urging HM Treasury to seize the UK’s first-mover advantage in Bitcoin. With 61,000+ BTC already held by the UK, smart policy could unlock jobs, innovation, and lower energy costs. Full letter on our website: tinyurl.com/4rstdjsw

Our team were out speaking with energy providers such as National Grid and Windward Energy Group about how the combination of #BitcoinMining and renewables is a perfect fit for the UK energy market. #Labour25 #Bitcoin

We had a positive discussion with Metlen Energy & Metals today. We discussed how #Bitcoin mining can help lower energy costs and boost the profitability of renewables for the UK. We're exploring practical ways to power innovation and financial inclusion. #Labour25

The FCA stopped by our stand at #LabourConference and said, “I don’t think we are that far apart.” We discussed regulation, demoed #Bitcoin’s use as peer-to-peer money via the Lightning Network ⚡, and even shared @Lawrence Lepard‘s book, The Big Print 📚 #FCA #FixTheMoney

📰 Great to welcome The Times to our stand at #LabourConference! We talked through the history of #Bitcoin and the famous Genesis Block, where it all began ⚡📜 #Labour25 #Fixthemoney

Jonathan Reynolds MP stopped by the Bitcoin Policy UK stand at #LabourConference today 🙌 We shared our work on how #Bitcoin can support UK innovation, energy, and financial inclusion! His biggest takeaway were the amazing books from @cjasonmaier and @Lawrence Lepard Lepard 📚 #Labour25 #fixthemoney

Bitcoin Policy UK has sent an open letter to Economic Secretary to the Treasury Lucy Rigby ahead of Labour Conference, following our 5 September invitation to meet at our stand. We explain why the UK’s position as the third largest sovereign holder of bitcoin cannot be ignored.

Bitcoin Policy UK is featured in the Labour Party Annual Conference 2025 guide. With 61,250 bitcoin held by the UK government, it’s vital that policymakers understand Bitcoin’s role in supporting freedom, innovation, and green energy.

Countdown to the Labour Party Annual Conference 2025: just two weeks to go. From 28 September to 1 October, policymakers, industry leaders, and delegates will gather in Liverpool for a pivotal event. For Bitcoin Policy UK, this is an opportunity to engage directly with MPs and provide evidence-based insights into how Bitcoin can strengthen the UK economy. We will highlight the real-world impact of missed opportunities. For example, the UK currently pays wind farms £1 billion a year to switch off turbines when the grid cannot handle excess power, while companies in Texas use surplus renewable energy to mine Bitcoin. The UK could do the same, turning waste into wealth. Our advocacy focuses on three priorities: A clear regulatory framework that supports businesses and encourages innovation Better education for policymakers on Bitcoin and its unique role Progressive policies that leverage renewable resources and unlock new opportunities We invite all attendees to visit Stand B4 in the main exhibition hall to join these important conversations. Mark your calendars and engage in the conversation!

Bitcoin Policy UK Invites Labour MPs to Discuss Bitcoin during Annual Conference 2025 We are pleased to announce that Bitcoin Policy UK has formally invited Labour Party MPs to meet with us at the upcoming Labour Party Annual Conference in Liverpool. 📍 You’ll find us at Stand B4 in the main exhibition hall. Our goal: to provide clear, evidence-based insights into the opportunities and challenges of Bitcoin, and to explain why Bitcoin deserves a distinct regulatory approach - separate from “crypto.” Key topics we’ll cover: 🔹 The distinction between Bitcoin and crypto 🔹 What Bitcoin is (and isn’t) 🔹 Real-world impact on UK businesses & consumers 🔹 Policy priorities for UK innovation & competitiveness We look forward to engaging with policymakers and shaping the conversation around the UK’s economic future.
