According to Cointelegraph, El Salvador has taken a significant step in integrating Bitcoin into its financial system with the approval of the Investment Banking Law. This new legislation distinguishes investment banks from commercial banks, allowing them to hold Bitcoin and other digital assets on their balance sheets. The law enables these banks to offer crypto services to sophisticated investors, akin to accredited investors in the United States. Juan Carlos Reyes, president of El Salvador’s Commission of Digital Assets (CNAD), highlighted that the law permits private investment banks to operate in both legal tender and foreign currencies for sophisticated investors. Additionally, banks can engage in digital assets like Bitcoin with a Digital Asset Service Provider (PSAD) license, potentially operating entirely as Bitcoin banks.#BTC
