ABA: The American Bankers Association
Statement

ABA Welcomes Fed and FDIC Rescission of Crypto Guidance

“We have long believed banking regulators should avoid implementing rules or guidance that limit banks’ ability to offer digital asset products and services in a safe and sound manner. Today’s announcement from the Fed and FDIC is a welcome and important step toward achieving that goal and ensuring consumers can access these products and services through their trusted bank relationships.  We look forward to working with the Fed and FDIC in this fast-evolving marketplace.”
