Opinion: Crypto de-banking may continue until January 2026

according to blockchain regulatory advisors, the pressure for cryptocurrency to go bankless may continue until January 2026, when Trump will have the authority to appoint new members of the Federal Reserve. Caitlin Long, founder and CEO of Custodia Bank, pointed out that the Federal Reserve is currently controlled by the Democratic Party and is conducting reviews of two crypto-friendly banks. A large number of inspectors have been stationed in these banks, putting pressure on their operations. Additionally, despite the possibility of the U.S. OCC and FDIC overturning their previous anti-crypto policies, the Federal Reserve's position remains unchanged, and the crypto industry may still face regulatory barriers in the future.
