Erebor Bank of Ohio has been granted a conditional national banking license by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the first time a cryptocurrency-affiliated bank has been granted this license. It is expected to become a full-service depository institution. It also applies for deposit insurance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Unlike Anchorage Digital, which received an OCC trust license in 2021, Erebor aims to fill the gap after the collapse of Signature, Silvergate and Silicon Valley banks, serving companies in the fields of crypto, artificial intelligence and other fields.
Japan's Sony also filed an application with the OCC this week, seeking a trust license through its subsidiary to issue stablecoins and provide cryptocurrency custody services. At the same time, many cryptocurrency companies are waiting for the OCC's trust license application decision.
