US bank regulators pull back guardrails on bank crypto activities

US bank regulators pull back guardrails on bank crypto activities
SHARE

The U.S. banking regulators have made a significant shift in their approach to cryptocurrency and related activities. In a recent announcement, the Federal Reserve, along with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, revealed that they are retracting several documents that previously advised banks to exercise caution when dealing with cryptocurrencies.

One of the key changes involves the withdrawal of supervisory letters that required banks to obtain approval from regulators before engaging in crypto-asset and stablecoin activities. Additionally, the regulators are also pulling back on statements from 2023 that cautioned banks to be vigilant about the risks associated with cryptocurrency.

Under the previous guidance, banks were warned about the potential volatility, legal uncertainties, and liquidity risks that could arise from offering crypto-related services or working with crypto companies. However, with the removal of this guidance, the Trump administration appears to be taking a more crypto-friendly stance.

In a statement regarding the changes, the Federal Reserve indicated that they will be exploring the possibility of issuing new guidance to support innovation, including activities related to crypto-assets. This shift in approach comes on the heels of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s decision in March to make it easier for banks to participate in cryptocurrency activities by scrapping previous guidance that urged caution in the space.

Overall, these changes signal a more welcoming environment for banks looking to enter the world of cryptocurrency. As regulators continue to reassess their stance on crypto-related activities, it will be interesting to see how the industry evolves in the coming months and years.
