US Senators Press Bank Regulators For ‘Fair’ Crypto Capital Rules

A group of U.S. Senate Republicans, led by Senator Cynthia Lummis, is urging federal bank regulators to establish clear and fair capital rules for banks involved with crypto assets. In a letter to the Federal Reserve, FDIC, and OCC, the lawmakers criticized the international Basel Committee's standards, which impose a punitive 1,250% risk weight on crypto assets, calling it a de facto ban not based on actual risk. They applauded recent interagency guidance that granted tokenized securities the same capital treatment as traditional ones, arguing this risk-based principle should apply consistently to all digital assets. The senators called on the agencies to develop a new capital framework, aligning with recent legislative progress on crypto market structure. Their push coincides with testimonies from top regulators, who emphasized a shift toward more risk-based supervision and responsible innovation, while also addressing stablecoin oversight under new proposals.

Fed Set To Review ‘Toxic’ Bitcoin Basel Treatment For Major US Banks

The Federal Reserve is set to propose new rules next week implementing the final phase of Basel III for major US banks, sparking a debate over the current "toxic" regulatory treatment of Bitcoin. Under existing Basel guidelines, Bitcoin is assigned a punitive 1,250% risk weight, making it prohibitively expensive for regulated banks to hold or provide services related to Bitcoin. Critics, including Bitcoin Policy Institute's Conner Brown, argue this approach is a "category error" that mischaracterizes Bitcoin’s risk profile and stifles banking services for Bitcoin companies. The Fed’s proposal will enter a 90-day public comment period, offering an opportunity to challenge the harsh capital requirements and advocate for a risk-based framework instead.

Bitcoin Policy Institute to Assess Federal Reserve Basel Proposal on Bitcoin Risk Rules

The Bitcoin Policy Institute announced it will review an upcoming Federal Reserve proposal that could influence how U.S. banks handle Bitcoin under international banking rules. The Fed is expected to release a proposal next week detailing how major banks should apply Basel risk-weighting regulations, followed by a 90-day public comment period. Currently, Basel rules assign Bitcoin a 1250% risk weight, classifying it as an extremely high-risk asset. This requires banks to hold significantly larger reserves to cover Bitcoin-related exposures, which critics argue discourages banking engagement with the cryptocurrency sector. The policy could restrict services for Bitcoin firms, custody solutions for investors, and overall financial infrastructure supporting Bitcoin. The Institute plans to analyze the proposal and submit formal feedback, as the outcome may shape traditional banks' future involvement in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Basel Banking Standards Vs Bitcoin: Strategy CEO Blasts 1,250% Risk Weight

Strategy CEO Phong Le and other industry experts are criticizing the Basel banking standards' treatment of Bitcoin, which assigns it a 1,250% risk weight. This classification makes it prohibitively expensive for regulated banks to hold or custody Bitcoin, as they must set aside $1 in capital for every $1 of exposure. In contrast, assets like cash, physical gold, and U.S. Treasuries carry a 0% risk weight. Critics argue this is a major policy error that misprices risk, discourages bank involvement in digital assets, and pushes activity toward riskier non-bank or offshore entities. They call for a review of these rules, especially if the U.S. aims to become a global crypto leader.

Standard Chartered To Launch Crypto Prime Brokerage Through VC Unit – Report

Standard Chartered is reportedly planning to launch a cryptocurrency prime brokerage through its venture capital unit SC Ventures, according to a Bloomberg report. The initiative, still in early stages, would expand the bank’s digital asset offerings and operate under the previously announced Project37C joint venture, which focuses on custody, tokenization, and market access. This move aligns with the bank’s growing involvement in crypto, including backing custodians, offering Bitcoin and Ethereum trading, and partnering with platforms like OKX and Coinbase. Launching the brokerage through its VC arm may help Standard Chartered navigate strict global banking capital requirements for crypto, which impose high risk charges on direct holdings. Global regulators are currently reviewing these rules, with the US leading calls for amendments ahead of their planned 2026 implementation.

AI Models Suggest XRP Could Climb to $15–$22 With BIS Tier-1 Status

Digital Ascension Group CEO Jake Claver suggested that XRP could potentially be recognized by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) as a tier-one banking asset, sparking discussions on its market impact. Currently, Basel regulations classify unbacked cryptocurrencies like XRP, Bitcoin, and Ethereum as high-risk assets, requiring banks to apply significant capital penalties and limiting holdings to 1-2% of tier-one capital. In contrast, tier-one assets include central bank cash, high-rated sovereign debt, and physical gold. A hypothetical AI analysis proposed that if XRP were reclassified as a top-tier asset, reduced capital requirements could drive institutional demand, potentially pushing its price to $15–$22 by 2026. However, such a regulatory shift remains theoretical under current frameworks.

2025 Tether Financial Analysis: An Additional $45 Billion in Reserves Needed to Maintain Stability

The article analyzes Tether's financial stability in 2025, arguing it functions as an unregulated bank rather than a simple payment operator. It applies a banking regulatory framework (Basel Capital Framework) to assess if Tether holds sufficient capital (its ~$6.8B in excess reserves) to cover potential losses from its asset portfolio. The core issue is whether Tether's total capital is adequate for its risk-weighted assets (RWAs). Its $181.2B in assets are largely in low-risk instruments (~77%), but ~13% is in volatile commodities like gold and Bitcoin. The analysis estimates Tether's RWAs between $62.3B and $175.3B, depending on the conservative treatment of its Bitcoin holdings. Under a baseline scenario, Tether's capital ratio is near minimum regulatory requirements. However, compared to well-capitalized banks, it may need an additional ~$4.5B in capital to support its current $USDT issuance. A more punitive treatment of Bitcoin could imply a deficit of $12.5B-$25B. Tether's counter-argument points to substantial group-level profits and equity (~$20B+), but these are not legally committed to the token entity and are invested in illiquid ventures like mining and AI. The article concludes that the sufficiency of Tether's capital is a complex, structural question without a definitive answer, dependent on asset risk weightings and the firm's willingness to mobilize group resources in a crisis.
