🏦 Breaking: CFTC Greenlights Bank-Issued Stablecoins
The CFTC just made a massive move for crypto legitimacy. With the release of Letter 26-05 (Feb 6, 2026), they have officially cleared the path for National Trust Banks to issue payment stablecoins used as margin collateral.
Why this is a big deal:
• Institutional Parity: Stablecoins from federally chartered trust banks now have the same regulatory "green light" as state-regulated ones.
• Collateral Revolution: Traders can now use these digital assets to back futures and commodities trades—unlocking massive liquidity.
• USA Leads: This aligns with the GENIUS Act of 2025, signaling a coordinated U.S. push to dominate the digital finance space.
The takeaway: Stablecoins aren't just for retail anymore; they are now a core pillar of the U.S. regulated financial infrastructure. 🚀
