The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) have scrapped crypto-related limits on banks, a move announced on April 1, 2025.

The FDIC allows its supervised banks to engage in crypto activities without prior approval, while the CFTC aligns crypto derivatives with standard regulations.

The FDIC, a government-backed body for financial stability, first hinted at this shift in February via Acting Chairman Travis Hill’s 790-page report, packed with bank pleas for freer crypto access. Now live, the policy lets FDIC-supervised banks tap into a booming industry without red tape. As Trump champions this pivot, U.S. banks stand poised to reshape finance with crypto innovation.
