OCC Highlights Major Concerns Over Crypto Debanking Practices Among Major Banks

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has raised concerns over "harmful debanking policies" among nine major US banks, including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo. A review found that between 2020 and 2023, these institutions restricted services or imposed heightened scrutiny on customers in legal industries—including crypto, oil and gas, firearms, and adult entertainment—based on the banks' own values rather than legality. OCC Comptroller Jonathan V. Gould criticized the use of "government-granted charter and market power" for such practices. The agency is evaluating thousands of debanking complaints and recently allowed national banks to facilitate crypto transactions, aiming to provide a more regulated environment than external exchanges.

Inside MSTR’s MSCI battle – Could it trigger Bitcoin’s next catalyst?

Q4 has been bearish for Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), particularly those heavily invested in Bitcoin. MicroStrategy (MSTR), which holds over 50% of its treasury in BTC, faces potential exclusion from MSCI indexes—a move that could trigger an estimated $2.8 billion in passive outflows. However, this risk extends beyond MSTR as more companies aggressively accumulate Bitcoin, intensifying competition among DATs. MSTR’s formal response to MSCI’s proposal was met with a bullish market reaction, reflected in a rising stock price and stronger on-chain metrics, including a significant premium to its Bitcoin-backed NAV. The outcome of MSCI’s decision is seen as a potential catalyst for Bitcoin, highlighting broader sector implications.

Reasons for Blocking Cryptocurrency Exchange Websites Named in Belarus. What is Known

The Ministry of Information of the Republic of Belarus has confirmed that access to the websites of cryptocurrency exchanges OKX, Bitget, BingX, Bybit, Weex, and Gate has been restricted since December 9th. The decision was based on a notification from the Minsk City Executive Committee, which identified "inappropriate advertising" on these platforms. According to the ministry, more detailed information about the nature of the violations can only be provided to the owners of these internet resources. Access can only be restored after the violations that led to the blocking decision, as well as any other breaches of the law, are rectified.

Bitcoin treasuries stall in Q4, but largest holders keep stacking sats

The adoption of Bitcoin treasuries slowed sharply in Q4 2025, with only nine new companies adding BTC to their balance sheets compared to 53 in the previous quarter. While 117 companies adopted Bitcoin in 2025, most hold relatively small amounts. However, the largest corporate holders, such as Strategy, continued accumulating Bitcoin, with Strategy purchasing $962 million worth in a single day. Overall, public companies hold over 1 million BTC ($90.2B), representing 4.7% of the total supply, while spot Bitcoin ETFs hold an additional 1.49 million BTC. Some firms, like Metaplanet, paused purchases, and others, like Satsuma Technology, sold portions of their holdings. Ether treasury investments also declined, with cumulative ETH acquisitions falling 81% over three months.
