Coinbase Wins Conditional U.S. Approval For National Trust Charter

@Coinbase has secured conditional approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for a national trust company charter.

This federal license allows the exchange to operate as a crypto custodian nationwide, significantly lowering the regulatory hurdles to large-scale institutional participation.

The charter also provides a direct path for Coinbase to expand into issuing its own stablecoins and tokenized securities (RWA).

Full approval would solidify the firm’s status as a federally regulated pillar of the American financial system.
