Are Banks waking up? What the situation and future of Crypto integrations with traditional banks
Just five years ago, the idea of cooperation between crypto exchanges and traditional banks seemed far. One represented decentralization the other, stability and institutional structure. But times have changed and quickly. Today, banks that ignore the integration of crypto functionality aren’t just missing out on innovation - they’re risking becoming irrelevant and outdated.
Most of the crypto exchanges are already in close collaboration with neobanks:
Kraken partnered with Bunq - https://thefintechtimes.com/bunq-partners-with-kraken-to-launch-in-app-crypto-investment-capabilities/
Bybit with MasterCard - cryptorank.io/news/feed/92c35-...
WhiteBIT collaborated with Misyon - https://crypto.news/whitebit-tr-partners-with-misyon-bank-amid-turkeys-rapidly-changing-crypto-landscape/
And many others have joined the trend recently or a long time ago already.
Banks and Crypto Aren’t Enemies. They’re Becoming Partners
With trillions in market capitalization and growing adoption among both retail and institutional investors, it’s clear that crypto is here to stay. Customers want to manage their finance and crypto assets in the same place. They expect flexibility, transparency, and 24/7 accessibility: features that traditional banking has long promised, but not always delivered. That’s where crypto exchange integration comes in. Rather than building blockchain infrastructure from scratch, banks are increasingly partnering with exchanges to embed crypto services into their offerings. Tech giants like Apple, PayPal, and Revolut are already integrating crypto features. To stay relevant, banks need to do more than just keep up.
New revenue opportunities. Integrating digital assets can unlock new revenue opportunities for banks. The question is no longer whether banks will engage with crypto. The real question is: will they lead, or will they follow?

On the downside, CRO (Crypto.com) and BGB (Bitget) took heavy hits, dropping 29.9% and 23.1%, respectively. Even the mighty BNB (Binance) couldn’t escape the slump, shedding 4.9%—a surprising dip given its massive user base. The DEX space was a bloodbath, with no tokens posting gains. RUNE (Thorchain) suffered the steepest fall, plummeting 75.9%, followed by SUSHI (SushiSwap) at 60.4% and UNI (Uniswap) and GNO (Gnosis) both down 57.2%.

DEX tokens, meanwhile, got hammered across the board, highlighting a stark contrast in performance. Is this a temporary dip or a sign of deeper troubles ahead? Q2 will tell

Trump’s Victory: The Potential Impact on Crypto Explained
Let’s revisit his key campaign promises to evaluate their potential impact on the crypto industry. In his election campaign, Trump pledged a series of important measures for the crypto community. Many of these were articulated at Bitcoin 2024 Conference
Creating a National $BTC Reserve Among Trump’s boldest campaign promises is the establishment of a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve. He pledged that his administration would retain all seized Bitcoin—currently around 210,000 BTC—to serve as a national reserve. “If I am elected, it will be the policy of my administration to keep 100% of all the Bitcoin the U.S. government currently holds or acquires into the future”. This initiative would position the U.S. as a global leader in digital currency reserves.
No Room for CBDCs Trump firmly opposes central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). His stance resonates with those in the crypto community who worry CBDCs could threaten privacy by expanding government control. By rejecting CBDCs, Trump’s vision aligns with those who see decentralized crypto as essential for privacy and freedom.
Boosting BTC Mining in America Trump also promised to expand Bitcoin mining domestically, envisioning a future where all new BTC is mined within the U.S. This effort aims to reduce reliance on foreign mining power, particularly in China. While details remain unclear, the initiative reflects Trump’s commitment to strengthening the U.S. crypto sector. Industry figures, like Jan3’s Samson Mow, see this as a positive step for crypto independence.
A Pro-Crypto Political Movement He aims to form a Bitcoin council to work with Congress on pro-crypto legislation and announced intentions to replace SEC Chair Gary Gensler. This political shift could foster a more supportive environment for digital assets, fueling growth and innovation in the U.S. crypto space.

A spokesperson confirmed that Binance continues to serve a “limited number of existing Russian users”
The cryptocurrency exchange Binance continues to serve a ‘limited number of users’ from Russia, even after its withdrawal from the market.
