Recent reports claim that crypto firms and financial giants are looking into expanding their operations in the US market following the Trump administration\u2019s efforts to regulate the digital assets industry and incorporate it into mainstream finance.<\/p>\n

Crypto Firms And Banks To Expand US Operations<\/h2>\n

On Monday, The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported<\/a> that the crypto industry is \u201cpushing deeper into the banking system,\u201d as several firms plan to apply for bank charters or licenses, including Circle and BitGo, according to WSJ sources.<\/p>\n

The news media outlet alleges that Coinbase<\/a> and Paxos are examining similar moves. Meanwhile, some unnamed firms are interested in national trust or industrial bank charters that allow them to operate like traditional lenders, making loans and taking deposits.<\/p>\n

Other crypto firms are reportedly seeking specific licenses to issue stablecoins, as related legislation gains momentum<\/a> in Congress. Notably, the firms that apply and get a bank charter will be subject to stricter regulatory oversight.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the report also affirmed that traditional financial giants, including Deutsche Bank and Standard Chartered, are working to \u201ccatch up and forge ties\u201d with the crypto industry by revisiting their approach to the sector.<\/p>\n

According to sources cited by the WSJ, a group of banks has started to explore ways to expand their crypto operations in the US after the new industry-friendly administration<\/a> shifts from its \u201cregulation by enforcement\u201d strategy.<\/p>\n

Although details of the alleged plans have not been revealed, the report notes that other banks remain cautious. It cites KeyCorp\u00a0Chief Executive,\u00a0Chris Gorman, who sees the potential opportunity in the crypto space but wants to evaluate how it develops with the \u201cregulatory challenges,\u201d such as anti-money laundering (AML) safeguards.<\/p>\n

Traditional Institutions Await US Legislation<\/h2>\n

Other banking giants have recently expressed their desire to expand into the crypto industry. In January, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan asserted<\/a> that the US banking industry was ready to embrace crypto payments.<\/p>\n

According to the CEO, banks would \u201ccome hard\u201d to crypto once the regulators allow it and a clear regulatory framework is established. \u201cIf the rules come in and make it a real thing that you can actually do business with, you\u2019ll find that the banking system will come in hard on the transactional side of it,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Moynihan\u00a0later affirmed that Bank of America would issue a stablecoin if the legal framework were established. Since taking office on January 20, the Trump administration has notably shifted the previous government\u2019s regulatory approach.<\/p>\n

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has dropped or paused most of its major enforcement cases. Moreover, US lawmakers have proposed several policies addressing various crypto-related topics, including the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) and stablecoin regulation.<\/p>\n

In February, US Senator Bill Hagerty introduced<\/a> the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS Act) to develop a framework to allow tokens like USDT and USDC to fall under the Federal Reserve Rules.<\/p>\n

The legislation aims to establish a \u201csafe and pro-growth regulatory framework that will unleash innovation and advance the President\u2019s mission to make America the world capital of crypto.\u201d<\/p>\n
