Lisa Cameron, a member of the UK Parliament, expressed concern about the lack of qualified personnel in the field of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, calling on the government to invest more actively in education.
Need for qualified specialists
Cameron noted that companies specializing in digital assets often have difficulty finding suitable candidates for vacancies, which means there is a shortage of qualified specialists in this field.
The importance of government investment
According to the parliamentarian, the UK has significant potential to become a technological superpower, but this requires significant investment in the training of specialists and the development of relevant skills.
Partnership with industry
Cameron called on the government to strengthen cooperation with leading blockchain companies such as Ripple, Circle or Tether, which have already launched their own educational programs.
Regulation of cryptocurrency advertising
In another context, the UK Financial Conduct Authority has warned bloggers and advertising agencies to require prior approval for the use of cryptocurrency-related images and symbols in publications.
