OCC Gives OpenReserve Conditional Approval for National Crypto Bank Charter
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has given OpenReserve Bank, National Association preliminary conditional approval to form a full-service national bank in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The proposed bank's services include deposits, lending, payments, and treasury services, as well as digital-asset services and non-fiduciary digital-asset custody. A stablecoin subsidiary is also part of the plan.
However, OpenReserve must meet several conditions before it can open, including having at least $210 million in initial paid-in capital and obtaining FDIC deposit insurance, Federal Reserve stock, and final OCC authorization.
