US Banking Lobby Considers Lawsuit Over OCC Crypto Charters

A US banking lobby group, the Bank Policy Institute (BPI), is considering legal action against the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for granting national trust bank charters to cryptocurrency companies like Ripple, BitGo, and Paxos. The BPI argues that these charters, which allow crypto firms to operate as trust banks and provide custody services, could pose risks to Americans and the financial system. They claim this move blurs the definition of a "bank," increases systemic risk, and undermines the credibility of national banking charters. The BPI had previously urged the OCC to reject such applications, and while no final decision on a lawsuit has been made, the group has a history of taking legal action against the agency. Similar concerns were echoed by the Independent Community Bankers of America.

Launching the License Defense Battle: US Banking Industry Plans to Sue OCC

U.S. banking industry groups, including the Bank Policy Institute (BPI) representing major banks like JPMorgan and Citigroup, are considering legal action against the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to halt the issuance of national trust bank charters to cryptocurrency and fintech firms. The conflict escalated after the OCC approved charters for five crypto-native companies, including Circle and Ripple, in December 2025, followed by 11 applications within 83 days. Opponents, such as the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) and Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA), argue the OCC is creating a "Frankenstein charter" that allows unfair competition with lower regulatory standards. The legal dispute centers on Interpretive Letter 1176 (2021), which expanded trust charter permissions without formal rulemaking under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). OCC Acting Comptroller Jonathan Gould defends the move, stating stablecoin services fall within traditional trust activities. The broader conflict reflects a struggle over financial system access, with crypto firms seeking federal legitimacy and banks warning of regulatory arbitrage. Potential lawsuits could mark the most significant banking legal battle since 2020.

Big Banks Threaten To Sue OCC Over Crypto Rules, Citing Threats To Financial Stability

Major US banks, led by the Bank Policy Institute (BPI), are threatening to sue the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) over its approval of federal trust charters for crypto firms. They argue that the OCC's streamlined licensing process, which has approved firms like Ripple, Circle, and Fidelity, releases these companies into the financial system without the stringent oversight applied to traditional banks. Banking groups warn this blurs the definition of a "bank," creates a regulatory loophole, and poses significant risks to financial stability, consumer protection, and competition. The opposition is also supported by state regulators and smaller banking groups.

‘Unlock for tokenization? ’- OCC clarifies capital rules for tokenized securities

U.S. banking regulators, including the OCC, Federal Reserve, and FDIC, have jointly clarified that tokenized securities will receive the same capital treatment as traditional securities, emphasizing a technology-neutral approach. This means tokenized stocks can serve as collateral if they meet bank criteria. Industry leaders hailed the move as a significant unlock for tokenization, laying groundwork for on-chain capital markets. Adoption has surged, with a 47% increase in holders to 184k in early 2026 and market cap exceeding $1 billion. However, aspects like settlement and custody rules remain unresolved, and tokenized securities remain a point of contention in broader crypto legislation.

No Crypto Market Structure Deal Could Lead To Increased Regulatory Crackdown, Expert Says

The CLARITY Act, a key US crypto market structure bill, has missed its March 1 deadline due to a lack of agreement between the crypto and banking industries. Negotiations have stalled primarily over whether stablecoin issuers should be allowed to offer yield to holders. An expert warns that without a deal, regulators like the SEC may continue a strict enforcement approach. Conversely, a compromise could attract significant institutional investment. JPMorgan analysts believe the bill's passage would be a major turning point, replacing regulatory uncertainty with clear rules and boosting institutional participation and real-world asset tokenization. Further Senate negotiations are expected in April 2026.

WLFI's Insider Deal Again? The $5 Billion Investment Bank License Controversy

The U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) faced scrutiny during a Senate hearing over World Liberty Financial (WLF), a crypto firm linked to the Trump family, which is seeking a national bank charter. WLF received a $500 million investment from Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a UAE national security advisor and royal family member, raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest, foreign influence, and national security risks. Democratic senators, including Elizabeth Warren, questioned whether WLF disclosed the foreign investment and its implications, including possible AI chip exports to China. OCC officials declined to comment on specific applications but emphasized adherence to standard procedures. If approved, WLF could self-custody and issue its USD1 stablecoin. The firm denies any wrongdoing and claims the scrutiny is politically motivated.

Elizabeth Warren Presses OCC Over UAE Stake in World Liberty Application

In a Senate Banking Committee hearing, Senator Elizabeth Warren questioned OCC Comptroller Jonathan Gould about the bank charter application for World Liberty, a company linked to former President Donald Trump. Warren raised concerns over a recent report alleging a UAE official secretly acquired a 49% stake in the company, which would require full disclosure under OCC rules. She argued that undisclosed foreign ownership poses national security and conflict of interest risks and could undermine public trust in financial regulations. Gould declined to discuss specific applications but assured that standard regulatory procedures would be followed. Warren requested access to unredacted documents for verification and insisted the application should be rejected if foreign ownership was not properly disclosed.

OCC Proposes Framework To Implement GENIUS Act, Targets Stablecoin Yield Workarounds

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has released a proposed framework to implement the GENIUS Act, a landmark stablecoin regulation signed into law in 2025. The 376-page proposal outlines rules for stablecoin issuers under OCC jurisdiction, including reserve standards, liquidity requirements, and risk management controls. A key focus is addressing potential workarounds to the Act’s ban on interest payments for stablecoin holders. The OCC warns that issuers might use third-party arrangements to circumvent the prohibition and proposes a presumption that certain deals with affiliates or related parties would be considered illegal yield payments. The agency is seeking public feedback on the proposal to shape the final rule.

OCC Seeks Public Feedback on GENIUS Act Implementation Proposal

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has proposed new rules to implement the GENIUS Act, which was enacted in July 2025 to regulate payment stablecoin issuers. The proposal, spanning 376 pages, aims to create a clear regulatory framework for stablecoin issuance and custody activities under OCC supervision. It excludes anti-money laundering and sanctions rules, which will be addressed separately. The public is invited to provide feedback within 60 days. The rules are expected to be updated after the GENIUS Act takes effect, potentially by January 2027. OCC Comptroller Jonathan V. Gould emphasized the importance of public input to shape an effective and practical final rule.

Meta Eyes Stripe Stablecoins for 2026 Rollout

Meta Platforms plans to integrate stablecoin payments into Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp in the second half of 2026, with Stripe likely as the infrastructure partner. This marks a strategic shift from its failed Libra project, as Meta will not issue its own token but instead rely on third-party stablecoins, positioning itself as a distribution layer. The focus is on reducing costs and speeding up cross-border payments for creators, particularly for small amounts. Regulatory clarity from the 2025 GENIUS Act and Stripe’s regulated infrastructure may enable a compliance-first approach. Meta has not disclosed which stablecoins will be supported or specific implementation details.
