Foresight News reported that, according to the Financial Times, sources reveal that JPMorgan is exploring the possibility of issuing loans using clients' crypto assets as collateral. This is another sign that one of America's largest banks is pushing for crypto assets to enter the mainstream financial system. If this policy is ultimately implemented, it would mark a significant shift in the stance of JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon. Jamie Dimon had referred to Bitcoin as 'a scam' eight years ago, claiming it 'would ultimately collapse' and was only useful for drug dealers and criminals. JPMorgan could potentially begin accepting crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum as collateral for issuing loans as early as next year, but the plan may still change.
