It is really a great news, it would help avoid lots of future scams. That's why it seems for me what some recent UK ICOs, designed according with UK legislation seems worth investing. LCCX is a good example - they already work with UK Financial Conduct Authority, located in London - It will prevent the unpredictable jurisdiction.

It is a very wise approach to crypto - to be 100% legal these days.
