The recent remarks by the Federal Reserve Chair finally provide an answer to the question that has been hanging over the crypto community. Does the regulatory authorities truly support the development of cryptocurrencies? The answer is yes — at least regarding banks participating in crypto services, their attitude has clearly shifted.



His core message is straightforward: banks no longer need to cling to traditional businesses and can fully offer crypto-related services. This sounds simple, but behind it is a significant change in the Fed’s attitude toward the entire industry.

However, this support is not unconditional. Regulatory boundaries are clearly defined: innovation failures are tolerable, but banks’ risk thresholds cannot be crossed; crypto projects may fail spectacularly, but deposit insurance must be maintained. In plain terms, it means integrating crypto services into the traditional financial framework and using mature regulatory rules to control the industry’s rapid growth.

What does this mean? The legalization and compliance of cryptocurrencies are now irreversible. Previously, many wondered whether regulators would treat crypto as a flood of disaster. Now, with the Fed Chair’s direct statement, the signal is clear enough. Once banks enter the crypto service sector on a large scale, the industry’s compliance speed will accelerate significantly.

For investors, this is indeed a positive development. Those holding mainstream assets like Bitcoin, BNB, and others now have even more reason to stay confident. The shift in regulatory attitude will attract more institutional capital, and the long-term growth potential of the crypto market will be further unlocked.

BNB-2.38%

Damn, did the Federal Reserve really loosen up this time? The fact that banks are entering the market completely signifies that the compliance trend is set. It seems the previous FUD voices are about to be silenced. This confirms that regulators are not trying to crack down on crypto but want to tame it using the traditional financial framework. In plain words, "You can play, but you have to follow our rules." The line drawn with deposit insurance is clever—it provides room for innovation while not relaxing risk controls. Quite interesting. Some people previously said crypto would be banned, but it looks like they overthought it. Institutional funds are entering this time. Banks are starting to consider crypto services, which is the real inflection point. However, this also means the era of wild growth is coming to an end. Compliance is indeed irreversible. It feels like the industry will enter a new phase next, which is a bit期待 and a bit regretful. But on the other hand, this is definitely good news for holders. In the long run, the space has been opened up quite a bit.

Wait a minute, is the Federal Reserve Chair trying to "tame" cryptocurrencies? Surface support but still want to put them in a cage. The entry of banks is indeed a positive sign, but don't forget it also means losing that wildness... Compliance = constraints, this account needs to be settled clearly. Brothers holding BTC, in the long run, it's indeed stable, just waiting for institutional funds to enter on a large scale. Projects that are about to collapse will still collapse. Don't think that regulation can help avoid zeroing out; the risks are always there. The most important signal from this wave is that cryptocurrencies are moving from the fringe to mainstream finance, and there's no turning back.

Wait, will the entry of banks really bring us positive news? Isn't it just another attempt to shake out retail investors?

Wait, did the Federal Reserve really say that? Or is it just another interpretation by some organization? Believe it or not, I've seen too many "major positive news" end up as jokes. Is it a good thing that banks are coming in? Weren't institutions also involved during FTX? It sounds nice, but isn't it just about trapping crypto in regulatory cages to make themselves comfortable? Feels like another wave of harvesting new investors' funds. Can it be different this time? I remain skeptical. Regulation = death, I've seen through this logic a long time ago. Ah, here we go again, every time they say there's going to be a reversal, but what happens? They keep making big moves every day, yet the market still drops as usual. It's hilarious.

so fed's basically seasoning the crypto kitchen for mainstream adoption... banks getting the green light to cook up crypto services, but yeah, they're keeping the heat controlled. smart move ngl, but feels more like they're force-feeding regulations into our stew than letting us freestyle the recipe honestly
