The same banks that once dismissed Bitcoin are now authorized to offer custody and leverage services for it. They’re not fighting it anymore..they’re adopting it.

Meanwhile…

• Regulatory Green Light: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has clarified that national banks can engage in cryptocurrency activities, including custody services, without prior regulatory approval. 

• Legislative Momentum: Senator Cynthia Lummis has introduced the BITCOIN Act of 2025, proposing the establishment of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve to enhance America’s financial security and global competitiveness. 

• Institutional Adoption: Major financial institutions are positioning themselves to offer cryptocurrency custody services, signaling a broader acceptance of digital assets. 

Yet, some still question if mainstream adoption is happening. It’s not coming; it’s here.

So, what’s holding Bitcoin’s price back? Is it market manipulation? Institutional accumulation? What’s your take?
