🟡 Starting in 2025, banks will be allowed to hold crypto — but not more than 2% of their capital
International banks will be able to invest in cryptocurrency — but not more than 2% of their funds. This decision was made by central banks around the world to provide banks with clear rules.
Here’s how it works:
• If the cryptocurrency is reliable — for example, a stable stablecoin or a token pegged to the dollar — the bank can hold it.
• If the crypto is risky (for example, Bitcoin or uncollateralized altcoins) — such assets will be strictly limited.
Why this is important:
— Previously, banks feared crypto — now they have been given the green light, but with a safety belt.
— This will help large crypto projects get closer to traditional finance.
— And for us, this means that crypto is becoming an increasingly "official" part of the economy.
