In accordance with KanalCoin, the UK government has introduced a national digital ID scheme to streamline public services and address illegal migration. The policy has raised concerns among Bitcoin investors over privacy and asset mobility, with experts like Dominic Volek and Andrew Amoils highlighting the tension between digital identity frameworks and the decentralized nature of cryptocurrency. The initiative, aimed at improving security and service access, has sparked debates on how it may influence residency strategies and crypto asset control. Historical precedents in Estonia and India suggest minimal immediate market impact, though long-term regulatory reviews remain a possibility.
