Payment Firms Adopt Cryptocurrencies, Company Purchases $1.5 Billion in Bitcoin
By:
According to a press release, last week the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency provided conditional approval to Protego Trust Bank for a trust charter to custody digital assets. The move will enable Protego clients to “hold, trade, lend and issue digital assets.” In related news, startup MetalPay, a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency payments platform, has filed with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to become a U.S. national bank. The application was filed for “First Blockchain Bank and Trust, N.A.” The company reportedly plans to submit additional applications with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, with the goal of accepting cash deposits (in addition to cryptocurrency deposits) that are insured by the FDIC. Such a move would reportedly make it the first FDIC-insured crypto bank.
